About the Awards
The New Zealand Insurance Industry Awards celebrate the outstanding achievements of New Zealand organisations and individuals across the insurance value chain. Submissions are open for 15 categories in 2024.
There are specific categories to recognise excellence and achievement across life insurance, general insurance, broking, claims, underwriting, insurtech, professional services and service providers.
Open to all organisations across the insurance value chain are the awards that promote diversity and inclusion in the workplace, and environmental, social and governance change.
Individuals are recognised across three prestigious categories that celebrate outstanding contributions, leadership, passion, and dedication to professionalism.
For further information please contact the ANZIIF Events team.
Submission Guidelines and Tips
Judging
The Awards are decided by an esteemed panel of industry judges who read and score each submission individually and vote under the supervision of an independent auditor.
Judges are bound by confidentiality agreements and recuse themselves when a potential conflict arises. At no time are judges who have identified a conflict allowed to read or deliberate on a submission.
The judging panel is overseen by a presiding judge and an external auditor is present at the judging day when the judges convene.
We recognise and understand the sensitive nature of the information provided in your submission. With this in mind, there are systems in place to ensure confidentiality at every stage of the judging process.
Submissions are now closed.
