Whether you’re a sheep farmer, a sheep breeder or a smallholder, protecting against the many risks they (and you) encounter is critical to your peace of mind. Australian sheep graziers must constantly manage the risks of changing global market settings and volatile domestic conditions.
Whether it be for fruit-picking, seed-planting, or crop-spraying, Aussie farmers are grateful for temporary workers, and recruits are grateful for the work. But the work itself is a tough row to hoe, and adequate workers’ compensation is vital, as well as being a pro when it comes to farm safety.

The future is coming – but Australians might not be quite ready to give up the past. While some other countries have embraced the movement towards electric vehicles (EV), we’re still in second gear. As EVs become more globally mainstream, the costs are dropping rapidly and there can be some tangible benefits for drivers making the switch, such as reducing environmental impact and saving money on fuel and maintenance costs.

As a professional, you strive to provide your clients with exceptional advice and quality service. But no matter how experienced, educated, or genuine your intentions are, there’s always a risk something could go wrong, and an allegation be made. That's where liability insurance comes in.
If you’re an accountant providing tax advice, an architect providing a design, or a consultant delivering business guidance, professional indemnity insurance (PI) acts as your safety net in the event of a claim.

Untangling the aftermath of an attack on your small businesses can be expensive and stressful, while a data breach can cause significant financial and reputational damage. Yet, Australia’s small businesses remain seemingly unalarmed, questioning 'Why would somebody bother to attack us?'.
