The latest annual Vero SME Insurance Index report will be released this afternoon, highlighting emerging trends and opportunities for brokers.

The research, now in its 12th year, provides insights into the attitudes of Australian businesses, ranging from micro through to large. This year’s survey involved 1500 SMEs and 250 large businesses.

Around 2400 participants have registered to attend a webinar on the results, a record number for the event.

Key issues examined in the report include how the economy is impacting insurance decision making, the claims experience and broker usage, satisfaction and trust.

BrandMatters Director Brand Strategy Kylie McNamara will present the findings, and a panel discussion will include Vero Intermediaries Engagement Manager Beverley Bradley, Resilium Insurance Broking MD Ben Hastie, and Marsh Australia Head of Authorised Representatives Adrian Johns.

Details on the webinar are available here, while report findings will be included on insuranceNEWS.com.au later today.
