A passion for service

Dean's dealt with high-value clients his entire career, both as a corporate dealer and a money market dealer in the 1990s and in the insurance industry since 1999.

Dean formed BRAVEday in October 2001, after seeing a gap in the market - or perhaps a gaping void - around service delivery.

His philosophy is to do one thing very, very well - and that is to offer the best personal and business insurance to BRAVEday clients, and manage the whole process for them, especially at claim time.

Before striking out on his own, Dean was an associate with an independent broking company, and before that, worked at financial institutions such as BNZ and HSBC.

In just a few short years, BRAVEday has built a strong reputation for care and advice both within the insurance industry and with their clients, but Dean isn't getting complacent. He regularly attends training courses, seminars and industry related workshops to enhance his knowledge and keep up to date with industry standards. He recently completed a Massey University Graduate Diploma of Business Studies endorsed in Personal Risk Management.

Dean is a member of Entrepreneurs Organisation of New Zealand and is always looking for new solutions, and smarter ways to help businesses manage their risks.

Dean is also a member of the PAA (Professional Advisers Association) and is an Associate Life Underwriter (ALU). He is therefore bound by the ethics, practice and disciplinary standards contained in the PAA Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct and supporting Bylaws.
