Ethical Business Practice. We do not tolerate unethical behaviour either in our own activities or in those with whom we seek to do business. We will comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, and accounting standards. In some cases, we use the services of an Underwriting Agents and Wholesale Brokers (insurance intermediary) to access products that are not available to us directly from the underwriter. You can identify where we have used an insurance intermediary as the Invoice/schedule will show that the policy is placed via another Insurance Intermediary. This situation usually arises where the insurance intermediary has developed a specialised product and competitive pricing for risks that are not commonly available directly but via the insurance intermediary. All insurance intermediaries that we deal with in New Zealand are required to hold a New Zealand Financial Advice Providers licence and to place all client funds received into a Trust Account and are required to meet the same high standards in the delivery of the services that apply to us. Importantly all claims will be the ultimate responsibility of and paid for by the insurer. In such cases should you wish to access the Financial Advice Disclosure of the Underwriting Agency or Broker please contact us and we will arrange to have a copy sent out to you.
