This Life Info website is run by Financial Advice NZ, a professional body which represents financial advisers and strives to increase New Zealanders financial health, wealth and wellbeing.
Life Info was originally founded by two passionate financial advisers who wanted to make sure New Zealanders had the knowledge to understand the value of personal insurances, such as health, life or disability insurance. Financial Advice NZ is proud to continue the site.
Financial Advice NZ knows that many New Zealanders worry about what would happen if they were unable to work, or how their family might manage if something happened to them. We understand the importance of protecting yourself and your family.
The value of personal insurances becomes clear when an unexpected event occurs. For many that have had the unexpected happen, they consider insurance to be the best advice they ever received. We also know from a study performed by Massey University that 54% of New Zealanders are underinsured.
There are many types of personal insurances– including life insurance, income protection, critical illness insurance, trauma insurance, total and permanent disability cover. It can be difficult to navigate the different insurances and work out what will meet your needs. Obtaining professional advice from a Financial Advice NZ member will give you the confidence to make the best decision. Most insurance specialists provide this advice at no charge to you.
We hope this website provides you with a greater understanding of the importance and value of personal insurances and helps you on the journey of obtaining the right insurances for you and your family, and most importantly, your peace of mind.
