INSURANCE

Jill Smith from Citizens Advice Bureau Far North (CAB)

This month's feature is about INSURANCE.

According to a Financial Services Council 2022 survey, around 70% of New Zealanders were underinsured. And more recently it has been reported that far too many New Zealanders are cancelling their cover altogether, putting themselves and their dependents at risk.

We hope the links provided in this post help you decide what kind of insurance policy is relevant to your situation.
