The Ins and Outs Guide to Insurance

We know you’re busy, so finding the time to read and understand your insurance policy can be difficult. That’s why we’ve come up with this guide – a simple rundown of how insurance works for your home, contents and car and how to make a claim.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We've been providing New Zealanders with an extensive range of personal and business insurance services for over 100 years.

Business sustainability at State

Our primary purpose – to pay all genuine claims and provide insurance to the community at an affordable cost – is affected by environmental and social factors, ranging from climate change to crime. In turn our own business impacts on the community, the environment and the wider economy. That's why we see it as our responsibility – and more importantly, good business – to operate sustainably and in a way that recognises these impacts and responds to them effectively.
