Although Western Pacific Insurance itself is a relative newcomer to the Australasian insurance scene, the principal partners behind the company have over twenty five years of history in the industry in Asia and Australia.

They brought to the company a portfolio of business from their Brokerages and network of business contacts that has helped Western Pacific Insurance get established with the kind of re-insurance arrangements and a level of business activity that would normally be associated with a company of some years standing. Western Pacific Insurance is based in New Zealand because the directors believe that there is a significant opening in New Zealand for the lines of business it specialises in, which will complement the business it already has access to in Asia.

It is an essential part of the Western Pacific Insurance business strategy that it has operations spread over a region that includes New Zealand, Pacific Islands and Asia because, in the long run, that kind of coverage is essential to give Western Pacific Insurance the depth and spread of business that is desirable for a speciality company like Western Pacific Insurance.
