We must, if we’re going to truly make a difference,
add value to our clients in every transaction with our business.
David Porteous
GROUP MANAGING DIRECTOR
“The Barn represents the next generation of specialty commercial insurance underwriters in New Zealand. A fresh start. No smoke and mirrors. 100% independent and here for the long term.
A business that’s great to deal with and makes a difference. No excuses.
Our sole focus is to assist our broker partners and mutual customers to meet this challenge head-on. We do this by utilising the breadth and depth of our in-house underwriting expertise across the Market Lane Group, and combine that with our extensive local & global insurance networks to provide efficient, unique, and truly exciting capacity solutions when they are needed most.
We look forward to working with you.”
