Zurich retains Service Quality Award at Life Company of the Year Awards

16 Mar 2015

From Zurich Financial Services Australia

Philip Kewin

Zurich Financial Services Australia (Zurich) has proudly won the “Service Quality Award” at the Life Company of the Year Awards, as presented by the Association of Financial Advisers (AFA) and Plan For Life (PFL).

It is the second consecutive year that Zurich has been honoured with this highly sought after award, which assesses life insurance companies in the key areas of product and service quality, innovation and support.

Mr. Philip Kewin, General Manager of Retail Life and Investments at Zurich, said that the company was particularly proud to be recognised with an award that is based on survey feedback from advisers themselves.

“The Zurich team is dedicated to delivering the best outcome for its customers, and supporting advisers via a suite of tools, resources and training, as well as market-leading products. This award is reflective of this dedication and more broadly of our service standards across claims, underwriting and new business as well as our contribution to the industry.

“We are incredibly pleased to be recognised by the AFA and Plan for Life, and moreso by the adviser community.”

The Life Company of the Year Awards have been run since 2006 as a way of recognising excellence within the industry.
