About

Donaldson Brown are New Zealand’s most transparent risk and insurance Advisors. We provide full-service solutions to large multi-nationals, corporate entities, SME’s and individuals. As business owners ourselves, we understand how important it is to manage all forms of risk and tailor solutions and products to protect our client’s valuable assets.

Currently, insurance brokers are not obligated to disclose any fees or commissions charged to their clients. Hence, there exists a fundamental conflict of interest between a broker and their client.

Donaldson Brown is changing that.

We act entirely for and are paid by, our clients to facilitate risk management and insurance solutions for their businesses, or as individuals. We act completely independently from any third parties, eliminating all conflicts of interest as we rebate 100% all commissions or incentives that are traditionally paid to brokers back to our clients. This is reflected in our ‘fee for service’ business model, which allows total transparency into our approach to doing business. Consider our model likened to that of a professional services firm, rather than that of a traditional insurance brokerage.

Donaldson Brown is disrupting a traditional market with new and innovative ways of doing business and managing risk. We are trusted by some of New Zealand’s largest listed multinationals, owner operators, SMEs down to individuals. We are the exclusive Commercial and Corporate partner to New Zealand second largest Bank, ASB.

Originating from a team of award-winning corporate insurance brokers from international broking houses and senior executives for multinational underwriters, we are passionate about disrupting a traditional market. We focus on delivering innovative risk solutions, advice and value to our clients.

Donaldson Brown adopts a holistic approach to risk management. We not only focus on lowering insurance costs but seek to mitigate risk and lower business costs in all areas of the insurance process. Eliminating any hidden incentives has forced the team at Donaldson Brown to deliver true value to clients. That is what we do.
