Nationwide Superannuation Fund (NSF Super) has appointed CommInsure as its new group insurer after a competitive open market tender process. 

The appointment by NSF Super, a multi-industry superannuation fund established over 25 years ago, will take effect on 1 July 2017.

Craig Harrison, General Manager, Life Product and Distribution, CommInsure said, “We are delighted that NSF Super has appointed CommInsure to provide insurance benefits for their members. CommInsure is committed to providing excellent products and services while enhancing the overall experience of being an NSF member.

“Our tailored product, claims and service offering for NSF Super members is underpinned by ongoing investment in our digital capability. We look forward to working with NSF Super to deliver long term value to their members,” Mr Harrison said.

NSF Super was impressed by CommInsure’s initiatives to encourage members to digitally interact with their fund, including online claims lodgement and underwriting capabilities, and a health and wellbeing program for NSF Super members.

Ian Morante, CEO, NSF Super said, “The Fund was extremely pleased with the outcome of the tender. Among the benefits to be provided to members will be enhanced digital and online functionality to meet their insurance needs. Appointing CommInsure fits well with the increased focus the Fund has on digital and electronic interaction with members and employers.”
