Auckland, 26 April 2021 – Kiwis have voted AA Insurance the Reader’s Digest Most Trusted General Insurer for the 11th year in a row.

The general insurer is one of only four brands to have earnt this length of recognition, and is in good company alongside Whittaker’s, Sanitarium and Dettol.

Now in its 22nd year, the annual Reader’s Digest Survey looks at 72 categories of products and services across a broad range of industries. Over 1,800 New Zealanders selected three of their most trusted brands for each category and rated those brands on the 1-10 scale for trust. AA Insurance was voted the top for its general insurance of car, home and contents, beating its own trust score from the previous year.

“To be voted New Zealand’s most trusted general insurer is a testament to the hard work of all our people and their dedication to backing up our promises,” says Richard Park, AA Insurance’s GM of Marketing, Product and Pricing. “For us, it’s about holding true to our core principles and values, like doing the right thing for customers time and time again.

“We’re honoured and delighted for this recognition – 11 consecutive years is a particularly special achievement and we couldn’t be prouder.”
