NZ comparison site embraces insurance
New Zealand-based comparison site Interest.co.nz, which offers consumers information for mortgages, credit cards, savings and term deposits, has announced that it is to branch out into insurance. The site, which has been operating for nearly a decade, will now offer comparison services for travel insurance, as well as property and car cover, assessing major insurers and their products in the broker and direct markets, as well as comparing premium rates.
“It’s just part of a planned expansion programme that will see us meeting the needs of readers thirsty for credible financial information to help them make informed buying decisions,” commented David Chaston, publisher of the site.
The site’s Insurance Editor John Grant added: “You need to understand what you are buying, and ‘cheap’ is not always the best, and the ‘most expensive’ does not necessarily mean the best value.”
