WE CARE

Skilled & Passionate

From the first meeting through claim completion, we aim to exceed your expectations.

Donaldson Brown is made up of a team of multiple award winning insurance brokers. We have been founded on the principle of innovation and the disruption of an insurance value chain bloated with cost and lacking in the delivery of actual value.

Our PeopleDisclosure Statement

 

PROVEN RECORD

Scale & Leverage

Donaldson Brown are members of the Insurance Advisernet/AUB Group. With over AUD $4.5b in client premiums across New Zealand and Australia we have the leverage to get the best deals done and claims paid fast.

Donaldson Brown Insurance gives clients the perfect balance of a dynamic, client-focused, and independent broking firm. Combine that with the scale and buying power of the wider group, and there’s little we cannot help you achieve.

 

PROUDLY

100% KIWI

We take pride in the fact that we’re kiwis protecting kiwis. Like most of our clients, we’re a 100% New Zealand owned and humble. You won’t find super cars or big city high-rises on our books.

Sadly, in New Zealand, many indigenous insurance brokers have been swallowed up by offshore multinationals with overseas head offices. With Donaldson Brown, the buck stops here in Aotearoa, not Wall Street or Sydney.
