There are eight major life insurance companies in New Zealand. All of these insurance companies are keen to provide us with life insurance quotes…on your behalf.
In addition to these insurance companies, many banks often have their own ‘in house’ life insurance products. Those that don’t have an ‘in house’ product will use one the major life insurance companies to underwrite their policies.
The key when deciding which Life Insurance company to use is who will be there to look after you at claim time? Will be the person on the end of the phone that you speak to? Will it be the bank teller who sold you life insurance?
We recommend dealing with a professional insurance broker (like us of course!) who will be able to give you quality advice and will be there to help you when you need them at claim time.
It’s not just about providing the best life insurance quotes at quote time, it’s also about being taken care of at the time when you really need it.
All of the life insurance companies below use a network of professional insurance advisers to distribute their insurance products. Also included are their claims paying ability ratings which are an independent assessment of an operating insurance company’s ability to pay its claims (there is no legal obligation on life insurance companies to be rated).
The easiest and fastes way to get the best quote that suits your situation is to let us provide you with quotes and recommendations.
