New Zealand underwriter Delta Insurance opens doors in Australia

Former Chubb exec, Stephen Carey, spearheaded the branch’s opening.

New Zealand underwriting specialist Delta Insurance is opening its doors in Australia as part of its expansion plans in Asia Pacific.

Delta’s Australian launch has been spearheaded by former Chubb executive Stephen Carey, who has more than 15 years’ experience in both the Australian and English insurance markets.

Carey said that the time was ripe for Delta Insurance to enter the Australian market.

“Brokers are looking for insurance partners who can not only provide superior products for their clients, but also exceptional customer service across both underwriting and claims,” Carey said. 

Delta Insurance has launched with an initial suite of its market-leading solutions - including professional indemnity, cyber insurance and commercial liability - with plans to expand its offering in the coming months. The company is especially focused on working with clients in the professional services, technology, healthcare, manufacturing and the food & beverage sectors.

Delta Insurance was established by industry leaders Ian Pollard and Craig Kirk in 2014.
