New chief underwriter for ClearView

Mr Page was formerly chief underwriter at AMP and NSW state underwriting and operations manager at AIA Australia. He has been an underwriter for 25 years.

The new recruit said his aim is to narrow the gap between underwriters and advisers, and spend time explaining the underwriting process.

“The need for personal insurance advice backed by quality, sustainable products is enormous and financial advisers and insurers need to partner together to deliver optimal client outcomes,” Mr Page said.

Clear and open communication between both parties ensures that advisers know that their clients have been given an open hearing and fair deal.”
