The 2024 5-Star Insurance Innovators report highlights companies that have made significant strides, whether through the adoption of new technology, launching products, or implementing new distribution strategies.
Selection process for the 2024 5-Star Insurance Innovators report
In June, Insurance Business invited insurers, brokerages, and service providers across Australia and New Zealand to participate in the nomination process. Companies were asked to outline the innovative steps they had taken in 2023 and the results achieved.
