Allianz Australia Limited

What Allianz Australia Limited does

Allianz Australia Limited is a Sydney-based general and life insurer that has operated continuously in Australia since 1914 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Munich-headquartered Allianz Group. The company serves over 4.5 million Australian customers through three operating entities: Allianz Australia Insurance Limited (general insurance), Allianz Australia Life Insurance Limited (life insurance), and AWP Australia Pty Ltd (Allianz Global Assistance, which underwrites roadside assistance). Product coverage spans personal lines (comprehensive and third-party car, CTP in NSW/QLD/SA, home and contents, landlord, renters, strata, travel, boat, caravan, life), small business and mid-market commercial lines (business pack, workers' compensation across NSW/VIC/ACT/NT/TAS/WA, commercial motor), EV insurance with battery thermal runaway coverage, and NDIS plan management.

The operating stack is direct-to-consumer and digital-first: customers quote, buy, and service policies through allianz.com.au and einsure.com.au, and manage claims and account changes via the My Allianz self-service portal with 24/7 lodgement and a 2-business-day new-claim response SLA. Back-office operations include dedicated 13 1000 general support and 1300 numbers for business, life, and state-specific lines, plus an EV-certified repairer network including Tesla-approved BodyTech Automotive Castle Hill and glass-replacement partner O'Brien Glass. The business benefits from knowledge transfer from Allianz Group's Munich automotive research centre, particularly for emerging EV and autonomous-vehicle risk underwriting. Regulation sits with APRA under AFS Licences 234708 (general insurance) and 296559 (life insurance).

Revenue is generated primarily through recurring insurance premiums billed monthly or annually on a quote-based, risk-adjusted pricing model, with bundling incentives such as a combined buildings/contents discount of up to 10%. A secondary revenue stream is standalone roadside assistance memberships underwritten by AWP Australia, priced at $99/year (Basic) and $139/year (Platinum). Customer segments are distributed across individual, small business, and mid-market; no enterprise concentration is disclosed. Claims paid exceeded $3.4 billion in 2025, including $1.44 billion in car insurance claims, providing directional scale on premium volume relative to a 4.5 million-customer base.
