This unique structure enables them to prioritise your needs and interests without the pressure of generating profits for external shareholders.

Built by doctors, trusted by professionals

Serving the medical community and beyond with tailored insurance solutions

MAS has deep roots in the medical profession, as it was initially founded by doctors specifically for doctors. Presently, over 80% of medical professionals in New Zealand choose them for their insurance needs.

The company has evolved and takes pride in welcoming professionals from all fields, including their friends and families. MAS places great value on open dialogue and encourages you to reach out to discuss how the company can assist you with your insurance, investment, and lending needs.

In 2021, MAS insurance celebrated a significant milestone, marking 100 years as an insurance company with a distinctive approach. While this achievement is noteworthy, the company considers it to be just the beginning. They’re committed to maintaining a legacy of excellence, innovation, and community focus for many more years to come.

Empowering well-being and sustainability

As a company founded by doctors, MAS deeply ingrained a commitment to serving the community within its DNA. The company firmly believes that when New Zealand communities thrive, they thrive as well. This philosophy drives its "Here for Good" approach, which serves as the foundation for all of its endeavours.

To demonstrate its dedication to community well-being, it established the MAS Foundation. This philanthropic arm supports health initiatives aimed at improving the well-being of traditionally underserved communities, ensuring that everyone has access to the care they deserve. They also actively engage in sustainable practices by participating in the Sustainable Business Network and collaborating with like-minded companies to explore innovative ways of operating in a more environmentally responsible manner.

Their focus extends beyond being a traditional insurance and investment company. It’s a community-driven organisation dedicated to protecting and enhancing your life and that of the broader New Zealand community. With a century of experience guiding its path, it eagerly looks forward to serving you and making a positive impact for generations to come.
