New Insurance Partnership

In June 2021, it was announced that Hollard^* planned to purchase the general insurance business CommInsure^{^}, from the Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA). This includes an exclusive 15-year strategic alliance between CBA and Hollard to distribute home and car insurance products to CBA’s customers through the CBA brand.

What does this mean for you?

If you are a current CBA customer with home or car insurance, you don’t need to do anything at this stage.

Your premium for the current insurance period and your current services will remain the same.

What changes will there be?

• If you have a direct debit arrangement for paying premiums, you will start seeing Hollard Insurance Partners/HollardIns as the new remitter name on your statements from 1 October 2022.
• If you have provided your credit or debit card details to pay for your policy and receive a new card number (ie. if your card is lost or stolen), you’ll need to update these details by calling 13 24 23.
• You’ll see a new look and feel in the messages you receive including Hollard’s logo alongside CommBank branding.
