Our Complaints Policy

As a member of the National Insurance Brokers Association (NIBA) we subscribe to the Insurance Brokers Code of Practice (the Code). The Code promotes efficiency in transactions by describing standards of good practice and the level of service to be expected from its members. In short, it’s our promise to you that we will act in your best interests at all times and be open and honest with you. You can read or download a copy of the code on NIBA’s website at www.niba.com.au/insurance-brokers-codeof-practice.
