Chris Carnall talks about nib’s soon to be launched life and living expansion

Chris Carnall spoke to Insurance Business about nib’s life and living insurance expansion. Back in March, nib New Zealand completed the separation of Kiwi Insurance from the customer systems of Kiwibank. From 1 June advisers will be able to start selling nib’s life and living services.

Carnall referred to the product launch as an interim solution, with a full-featured version for advisers looking to be at least another year away.

“We’re going to market with it because we are going to be having a direct-to-consumer advertising for the solution set that starts about the same time, and we need to make sure that advisers have access to the same sort of products that anyone can buy if they did go through direct channels with us, given that advisers are the cornerstone of our business.”

Roadshows across the country will explain what the products are, who they’ll likely appeal to and how advisers can get involved. Advisers can register to attend the roadshow of their choice here.
