Strategic expansion backed by institutional strength
MB Insurance Chairman Shane Sheppard said the expansion is a long-term commitment to New Zealand, designed to give brokers another genuinely specialist option when placing difficult or high value motor risks.
The agency enters the market backed by capacity from Lloyd's of London and its 2021 acquisition by the ATC Group.
"We believe the timing is right because we have reached a point in our journey where the experience, capability and relationships we have built over 35 years in Australia can be brought to New Zealand," Sheppard said. "We are not entering the market simply for growth. We are entering because we believe we can add genuine value."
"Our message to brokers is straightforward: you now have another specialist partner at the table," Sheppard said. "When a broker has a specialist motor risk, particularly a prestige, luxury, high performance or classic vehicle, we want MB Insurance to be one of the first markets they think of."
