About us

We’ve been protecting Kiwi businesses for more than 165 years. We know what it takes to plan and prepare for the unexpected and the importance of being there to support our customers through good times and bad.

As one of New Zealand’s longest established insurers, NZI is proud to have provided peace of mind for our customers for more than 165 years. NZI has kept pace with industry changes and stayed ahead of the curve when it comes to opportunities and risks faced by Kiwi businesses.

We have scale, we have experience, and we’re experts in risk management. When you’re with NZI, you get more than insurance. We actively help Kiwi businesses manage their risks and provide support through thick and thin.

By working with local brokers around New Zealand, we can tailor insurance to meet your needs. Talk to an insurance broker today about how NZI can help protect you and your business.

NZI is proudly backed by IAG – the largest general insurer in New Zealand.
