Chubb plans to replicate Australian success with its Masterpiece insurance product in New Zealand, the insurer’s new Head of International Personal Lines (IPL) for the two countries Angela Capponi says. 

Masterpiece is designed for high-net-worth home and contents insurance customers. 

“Masterpiece is now a market leader in Australia and we plan to replicate this success in New Zealand,” Melbourne-based Ms Capponi, who was formerly local Personal Lines Underwriting Manager, said.  

“In my new role as Head of IPL, my focus is on continuing to build great relationships with our broker partners while also enhancing our service to our clients, ensuring they have the right coverage to properly protect their wealth,” she said.  

Chubb says the recent promotion of Ms Capponi, who has been at Chubb for almost 30 years, sees her responsible for the IPL portfolio and “providing superior products and services to our personal lines’ customers within the A&NZ region”. 

Ms Capponi thanked the Chubb team for “their unwavering support and for continuing to establish great relationships with our business partners and providing the underwriting expertise needed to support our clients”.
