      We are pleased to launch our refreshed KPMG Insurance Insights Dashboard which brings to life key financial information from insurers’ publicly available financial statements through a range of interactive charts presenting key industry metrics, financial position and results up to 31 December 2025.

      Our insight dashboard includes financial information for all licensed New Zealand insurers, whether focused on general, life or health insurance, and allows users to apply filters to drill down into information by segment or by company. To bring this altogether, we have provided commentary on the financial performance of the industry, drawing on information from KPMG Insurance Insights Dashboard.
