CRM Brokers Pty Ltd subscribes to the Insurance Brokers Code of Practice (the Code). The Code aims to enhance and promote the professionalism and standing of the National Insurance Brokers Association (NIBA) members, and further increase community confidence in insurance brokers.
The Code applies to the relationship between insurance brokers and their clients. It describes key service standards that clients can expect from brokers, as well as an overview of the complaints and disputes handling process. The Code has been specifically developed by NIBA to be a user-friendly and helpful tool for both insurance brokers and their clients.
The objective of the Code is to build upon the professional competence in the insurance broking profession, increase consumer confidence in insurance brokers and increase knowledge of the important role they play. The service standards outlined in the Code are also aimed at safeguarding self-regulation of the broking industry.
