Press releases 2021

Allianz Partners is pleased to announce it has secured a strategic partnership with Jettzy, the first with an online travel agent (OTA) operating out of New Zealand. 

Today, Allianz Partners, along with strategic partner Uprise has announced a pilot programme designed for international students with the University of Auckland for a new Mental Wellbeing app. 

Allianz Partners has been named in the Top Insurance Employers 2021 report by Insurance Business. 

Allianz Partners and Mercer Marsh Benefits announced that they have extended their collaboration on the Insurancesafe portfolio of medical and travel insurance. 

Tower Insurance has signed an agreement with Allianz Partners to deliver travel insurance to Kiwis including selected cover for epidemics and pandemics. The relationship will also deliver other new products, such as pet insurance. 

With the travel bubble to the Cooks Islands due to open on 17th of May, Kiwis might be wondering what insurance cover is available for their next island getaway.

Following the official opening of the trans-Tasman travel bubble, Allianz Partners has today introduced selected epidemic and pandemic disease cover for its Corporate Premier policies. 

With the borders currently closed due to Covid-19, schools and education providers have been hard-hit by the lack of international students due to their inability to enter New Zealand. In response to the challenges felt by the international education industry, ISANA NZ has joined forces with Studentsafe, Mercer Marsh Benefits and Allianz Partners to work together to assist schools and tertiary education providers. 

Although New Zealand is not part of Australia, when we were able to travel freely between countries pre-pandemic, this is how many Kiwis seemed to treat it, according to a leading travel insurance specialist. 

The World Tourism Organization has welcomed Allianz Partners into its global network of Affiliate Members. With a presence in 75 countries, the company will help advance UNWTO's mission to promote safe, responsible and accessible tourism, with a special focus on travel and mobility protection solutions. 

As we approach the decision day on a trans-Tasman travel bubble, Kiwis might not know what their options are for insurance when flying internationally.

You've waited what feels like a lifetime to leave New Zealand shores for quarantine-free travel. But amdist the excitement and anticipation of getting on the first plane to Australia or the Cook Islands, don't forget that Covid-19 not only put a halt to travel plans but has also changed the way we travel.
