ARGIS Underwriting is back arranging cover for farm risks with effect from 9 August

“We’re incredibly excited to step into this new era for ARGIS. We’ve been arranging comprehensive cover for farmers and primary producers across Australia for nearly 30 years and we’re looking forward to the next 30”, said ARGIS Underwriting Manager, Peter Morsley said.

As part of the new arrangement, Steadfast Risk Group’s in-house claims service, Steadfast Claims Solutions, will manage claims for ARGIS Insurance (ARGIS) which is more streamlined and may lead to faster processing of claims.

ARGIS now has capacity with Pacific International Insurance (Pacific) and will continue to focus on small to medium-sized farming risks, including farm building and contents, machinery breakdown and cropping.

“Our experienced team of underwriters has a rare understanding of the primary industry and its challenges and look forward to providing the same level of expertise and service brokers and their clients.

“Despite the changing landscape of farm insurance around the country, there are minimal changes to the product wording and risk appetite. This was a huge consideration for us and formed an important part of our decision to partner with Pacific”, Peter Morsley added.

Pacific is an APRA-licensed Australian insurer with significant experience and understanding of the unique market, heritage and challenges of our country.
