It aims to enhance claims management across Australasia.

Charles Taylor, a loss adjusting firm, has announced a partnership with New Zealand-based Carter Briggs Hurle (CBH) Adjusting, which aims to enhance claims management across Australasia, including Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands.
