About the evaluation
TheHarvest Partners Market Evaluation is compiled from a questionnaire of responses from 20 Australian life companies.
Respondents fall into five broad categories covering the major disciplines involved in life company operations. These are senior executives, actuarial, underwriting, claims and product.
Full results for each company’s performance are reported privately, with Harvest Partners creating an overall report, with analysis and commentary provided to tie results together and draw conclusions and directions for companies to take on board.
Money Managementwould like to thank Harvest Partners for providing access to the report for the preparation of this feature.
