In Australia, insurance is tightly governed by the Insurance Council of Australia (ICA), which is the representative body of the general insurance industry.

There are so many different types of insurance and even more providers to choose from so it’s important to speak to people who really know their stuff and can point you in the right direction.

No matter where you are, you’ve got to factor in the possibility of loss, whether that’s personal or other. Therefore it’s vital that you have the right policy to ensure the highest possible protection in the event of a claim – of course hoping that you never have to deal with that.
