Zurich commercial motor policies will be made available on iSelect’s comparison website, with the Swiss insurer looking to add more general insurance offerings later.

“Through iSelect, we will bring a compelling insurance proposition, initially in commercial motor, to the small business world,” Australia and New Zealand General Insurance CEO Rajbir Nanra said.

“We are looking forward to working with iSelect to explore other areas we can work [in together]… in the commercial insurance space.”

Zurich declined to give further details on the areas it is considering.

iSelect Group Executive for Life and General Insurance Michael Keyte says having Zurich on the general insurance panel, in addition to offering its life products, will “enable us to better meet the needs of our rapidly growing customer base”.

“Not only will Zurich help us provide existing customers with a broader range of product options, but it will also help us to attract new customers,” he said.
