Every year at our AGM, the members choose the insurance broker for the following year.
Our current broker is Christine Reith from AJ Gallagher who is based in Brisbane. Every year, Christine conducts a comparison survey and at present Ansvar has the best product with competitive premiums for our purposes.
Ansvar has been our underwriter for a few years now for a number of reasons:
1. reasonable premiums
2. fast claims service
3. an office in Brisbane.
We have seen a number of events (fire, floods) in Australia in recent years with insurance companies paying out millions of dollars, resulting in increased premiums across the board. As with most things, we can expect some increases over the coming years.
