What We Cover
We work for you, not the insurer. As a 100% New Zealand owned broker, we take the time to understand your business before we go to market. We access a wide panel of New Zealand and international insurers to structure cover that genuinely protects your assets, people, and income.
Book a ConsultationThe core of any sound business risk programme. We work with businesses of all sizes to review your full exposure and structure cover that responds when you need it. Whether you're a growing business or a mid-market company with a more complex risk profile, we go to market on your behalf and negotiate terms accordingly.
Cover can include:
Policy coverage, terms, and exclusions vary between insurers. Speak with us directly to understand what is and is not covered under your specific policy.
Complex risks need specialist market access. These risks require specialist market knowledge and a broker with the experience to place them correctly. We work with the New Zealand insurers who write these lines, and where the local market cannot respond, we have direct access to Lloyd's of London.
Cover can include:
Purpose-built insurance programmes for groups. We design and manage insurance programmes for franchise networks, industry associations, and membership organisations across New Zealand. A well-structured scheme delivers consistent cover for every member, removes the gaps that individual placements create, and gives the group the collective buying power of a single programme. If you run a franchise network, manage an industry association, or represent a group of businesses with shared exposures, we can build a programme around you.
We manage your claim. You focus on your business. When you need to make a claim, we do the work. We lodge, track, and negotiate on your behalf. When the settlement offered falls short of your full entitlement, we push back.
Standard retail insurance is not built for high-value assets. If you have a premium home, a collection, a prestige vehicle, or a boat, standard policies will often fall short at claim time. We access specialist insurers who provide agreed value cover, broader terms, and claims service that matches the asset being protected.
Cover can include
Available to existing commercial clients. If your business insurance is already with us, we can also manage your personal cover. Consolidating under one relationship keeps things simple and ensures nothing falls through the gaps.

How We Work
Insurance should reflect how your business operates. At Stainton & Co., the focus is on understanding your activities, identifying where risks may arise, and structuring insurance solutions that properly support your business. Clear advice and ongoing support help ensure you can make informed decisions about protecting what you have built.
Request a ReviewA proactive approach is taken to managing risk. By understanding how your business operates and how those risks can change over time, your insurance programme can remain appropriate as your business evolves.
Insurance can quickly become complex. The focus is on explaining coverage clearly so you understand what your insurance does, how it responds, and where potential gaps may exist.
Understanding how your business operates provides the right perspective when structuring insurance. Cover can be arranged to better reflect how your business runs.
Extensive experience across commercial insurance and risk management helps clients navigate policy structure, insurer expectations, and evolving business risks.
Strong working relationships are maintained with New Zealand's leading insurers and selected specialist markets, helping secure competitive terms and access broader solutions when required.
When a claim occurs, Stainton & Co remains actively involved helping manage communication with insurers and working towards a fair and efficient outcome.
