Zurich best for business life insurance: Canstar Cannex
Zurich Australia remains the top dog for business life insurance, according to the latest ratings by research house Canstar Cannex.
The ratings compared 13 companies offering risk protection policies for business, with Zurich once again taking out the overall product category, as well as the key person insurance and business partner insurance categories.
AIA Australia also repeated its form from last year, topping the business expenses insurance category, primarily due to its keen pricing.
The head of wealth management at Canstar Cannex, Stephen Mitchell, said Zurich had proved that its win last year was no fluke.
“Zurich remains consistent in its pricing and features across all profiles we looked at,” Mitchell said.
