National Insurance Brokers Association
The National Insurance Brokers Association (NIBA) represents the interests of the insurance broking sector in Australia. NIBA members range from large international brokerages to small suburban brokerages. Through representation, communication, information and education, NIBA ensures insurance brokers’ interests are protected and their professional standing enhanced.
NIBA is one of the most effective industry associations operating in the financial services sector. It represents brokers, agents and underwriting agencies operating in the life and general insurance industries.
The insurance and risk business is highly regulated, and intermediaries are subject to a wide range of professional and legislative pressures. To thrive in such a demanding environment they must be able to keep pace with constant changes in the risk factors Australian businesses face.
NIBA supports its members through its lobbying, education, technical and information services. NIBA members are recognised as having attained a high standard of professionalism and knowledge through ongoing educational support and technical development.
The NIBA Board of Directors and divisional committees in each State and Territory are our powerhouses for ideas and activity. And by drawing on the expertise of the NIBA secretariat for advice and action, NIBA’s responses are always focused and relevant.
Specialist committees represent a wide range of interests and allow members to discuss relevant topics with their peers, discover more about issues of importance and build their own influence within the broader NIBA network.
NIBA members also participate in a wide variety of industry, business and government bodies.
