New Zealand insurance brokers are being encouraged to take part in the 2026 Brokers on Underwriting Agencies survey before the deadline on Friday, August 14.

The survey seeks broker feedback on underwriting agencies across New Zealand and will help determine which organisations are recognised in this year's report. It asks brokers to rate performance across several key areas, including service, responsiveness, technical expertise, support and product capability.

New Zealand Underwriting Agencies Council executive director Paul Uprichard, who was interviewed for the 2025 report, said: "In such a relationship-driven market, brokers value underwriting partners who can combine that decisive, informed service with a genuine commitment to collaboration and long-term trust."

Help identify the agencies that continue to deliver for brokers and provide valuable insight into evolving expectations across the sector.

Complete the survey by Friday, August 14.

Brokers on Underwriting Agencies 2026 will be published on the Insurance Business website in December.
