Years of insight for a better tomorrow

Our Income Protection insurance options

We're committed to a better future

Drawing on in-depth research, insight and input from advisers and customers, we've evolved our Income Protection options to create more sustainable products for the future. For us, when we talk about sustainability, that really comes down to fairness. It's the balance of what customers need when they call on us to make a claim and what all Australians need and deserve from their Income Protection: affordable cover that’s with them for the long-term, for the better.

We’ve redesigned our Income Protection product, challenging our ideas and historical approaches at every stage. In addition, we’ve been working within the boundaries provided by APRA and considering the work of the Institute of Australian Actuaries Disability Taskforce to realign our products with sound insurance principles.

Evolving our product, for the better

We have a wealth of experience in the Income Protection market, but we understand the need to evolve and improve for our customers. Creating our new Income Protection insurance has been a huge team effort. We've spent over two years working on creating a better product with input from dedicated, passionate people across our whole business - meet just a few of them below:

Working together for a better future

Talking to you and your clients was the only way we’d really understand what you needed from Income Protection. So that’s exactly what we did: our team listened, researched and tested our ideas with hundreds of advisers and clients.

Jo Hetherington, Head of Financial Health

Simpler, for the better

We went back to the foundations of Income Protection and asked: what’s it really designed to do? And how can we make it do that, simply? Jo and the team have helped to ensure our products work as they should, so your clients can focus on their recovery after illness or injury.

Melissa Hayes, Head of Inforce Product

More options for a better future

Redesigning our Income Protection products has been a huge focus over the past few years, but we haven’t ever forgotten what it means for our existing customers. That’s why, with Mel’s help, we’re creating options to help in-force customers keep the cover they’ve put their trust in.
