What is Investment Managers Insurance?

PLI Brokers' Investment Managers Insurance is tailored specifically for the needs of Australian investment management firms. This policy consolidates multiple coverage sections into a single, easy-to-manage form, offering convenience and peace of mind to professionals in the investment management sector. 

PLI Brokers understands the unique risks faced by investment managers in today’s complex regulatory environment. Australia's investment sector, one of the most rapidly growing in the Asian Pacific region (valued at around $1.3 trillion, as per ASX Australian Investor Study 2023), has led to increased investor claims, which is why investment managers should be protected now more than ever. 

Our industry expertise enables us to provide bespoke solutions that can be customised to fit each policyholder's specific risk profile.
