You keep the world moving. It's your journey that moves us

For many Australians, insurance isn’t just about policies, it’s about protecting livelihoods, supporting resilience, and empowering progress. For GT Insurance, that mission has taken on new momentum in the year since its merger with marine specialist AM&T.

Now backed by the global strength of Allianz and powered by a dedicated team of local experts, GT Insurance is more equipped than ever to help brokers and their customers navigate uncertainty with confidence.

Expanding capability without compromising care

When AM&T officially joined forces with GT Insurance, it marked more than just a business integration. It represented a strategic investment in specialist capability, deeper industry insight, and a broader appetite across an expanding range of sectors.

The result is a team that combines decades of transport, logistics, and marine underwriting expertise with a customer-first mindset.

“We’ve brought together the strengths of two trusted names in the market,” said Tony Dodd, CEO of GT Insurance. “But more importantly, we’ve built a platform for long-term progress - for our brokers, their customers, and the industries we serve.”

From commercial transport fleets to complex marine risks, GT Insurance has positioned itself to anticipate tomorrow’s needs — not just respond to today’s.

“We understand the environments our brokers are operating in,” Dodd said. “They need a partner who’s agile, forward-thinking, and ready to back them up with practical support. That’s where we come in.”

Delivery that matches the promise

For Dodd and his team, capability means very little without consistent, quality delivery—and in 2025, that delivery will see some important upgrades.

“We’ve been laser-focused on continuous enhancements to our customer experience,” Dodd explained. “Brokers rely on us to deliver so they can fulfil promises to their customers. That means providing carefully crafted policies, seamless and swift experiences both online and offline, and support from real people when it suits them.”

That commitment to human-centered service is at the core of GT Insurance’s strategy. In a world increasingly dominated by automation, the insurer is doubling down on expert-led support, empowering brokers with people who understand the nuances of risk and can tailor solutions in real-time.

“Exceptional claims support is a huge part of that equation,” Dodd added. “When the unexpected happens, we want brokers and their customers to know they’re not just getting a payout — they’re getting a partner who’s ready to help them get back on track.”

The road ahead: enhancing the GT Insurance experience

Looking to the year ahead, GT Insurance has its sights set on delivering an even better experience for brokers.

While the business continues to build its reputation for relationship management and technical knowledge, 2025 will see the introduction of several digital enhancements designed to bring greater speed, simplicity, and transparency to the insurance journey.

“Technology will play an increasingly important role in how we support brokers,” Dodd said. “But we’re not using tech to replace people — we’re using it to empower them. Whether that’s faster quoting tools, streamlined claims handling, or clearer communication channels, it all comes back to making life easier for the people we serve.”

The upcoming changes are part of GT Insurance’s broader Powering Progress campaign, a reflection of its commitment to supporting brokers in navigating complex and fast-changing risk landscapes.

“The world doesn’t stand still, and neither do we,” said Dodd. “We’re building the kind of insurance business that brokers can rely on — not just now, but well into the future.”

A trusted partner in a dynamic market

As the insurance industry continues to evolve, brokers are facing new expectations from their customers. In turn, they need insurer partners who are responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in their success.

GT Insurance is stepping into that role with renewed energy and a bigger toolkit.

From tailored risk solutions to responsive claims support, the business is proving that a great insurance experience doesn’t happen by accident. It takes people who care, processes that work, and a vision that stays one step ahead.

“Every broker we work with is helping someone move forward,” Dodd reflected. “Whether it’s a small business protecting its fleet or a freight operator managing complex marine exposures, our role is to back them up with clarity, confidence, and consistency.”
