AMP Travel Insurance

Established in the mid-19th century, AMP stands as one of New Zealand's most enduring companies, boasting over 160 years of continuous operation under the same brand.

Born out of a time of hardship and high risk, AMP was founded by community leaders who sought to provide financial security for their fellow citizens. Today, AMP offers a wide range of financial products and services, including travel insurance, to ensure that individuals and families have peace of mind while exploring the world.

A journey of transformation and growth

AMP's journey began in 1854, providing life insurance policies to a population of less than 100,000 of primarily miners and farmers. Over the years, AMP has evolved and adapted to the changing needs of its community. In 2011, they merged with AXA Asia Pacific Holdings, a company rooted in comparable beliefs and a collective commitment to delivering high-quality financial advice. This merger marked a significant milestone in AMP's history.

In 2020, AMP divested its life insurance business to Resolution Life, shifting its focus towards becoming a specialised KiwiSaver and general insurance provider.

A commitment to community and sustainability

AMP's commitment extends beyond financial services. Recognising the crucial role businesses play in supporting thriving communities, economies, and environments, AMP has established key community partnerships and initiatives. With their partnership with Conservation Volunteers New Zealand (CVNZ), AMP supports restoration programs spanning the entire country, with allocations for 2,000 native trees to promote the well-being of the Papakura Stream.

AMP proudly collaborates with Voices of Hope, a mental health charity focused on dismantling the stereotypes associated with mental illness. This partnership began in 2017 when Voices of Hope co-founders received an AMP Scholarship to fund their impactful video content and campaigns.

AMP: A living wage employer and advocate for social change

AMP's commitment to its people is evident in its status as New Zealand's first accredited financial services living wage employer. This accreditation means that everyone working at AMP, whether directly or contracted, receives a wage that reflects the actual cost of living in New Zealand. This commitment extends to encouraging other employers to take responsibility for their employees' welfare.

In 2019, AMP partnered with Dignity, an impact-driven business committed to providing access to sanitary products for all women in New Zealand. Through this partnership, it not only provides free sanitary products to its employees but also donates an equivalent number of products to women and girls who cannot afford them.

AMP's vision for a sustainable future

AMP's vision of sustainability extends beyond environmental conservation. It encompasses addressing a range of social issues to support a thriving community, economy, and sustainable environment. Through their dedication, they offer enhanced cost-effectiveness and contribute to building a more promising future for future generations.

When travelling, unpredictability is a constant companion.
