STANDsure

STANDsure is a comprehensive and innovative forest protection plan providing owners, investors, managers and consultants with a level of protection needed in today's high risk environment.

Innovation

Our focus on client needs, rather than insurance company offerings has seen us emerge as market leaders in the insurance of forestry risks.

In 2001 when we launched the STANDsure product we led the way with the scope of cover and simplicity of the product. Over the years we have continued to introduce meaningful innovations.

More recently we have been the innovators of insurance cover for Carbon Credits, providing input to Government, The School of Forestry and others on how best to provide this cover.

We pride ourselves on the fact that our achievements have already withstood the test of time and will continue to do so.

What STANDsure covers

STANDsure covers the conventional risks of fire lightning and explosion but can also include additional covers for wind damage of toppling, stem breakage and windthrow. In most cases cover for wind damage can be included for up to $500,000 on trees over 5 years of age.

It is also possible to purchase additional cover for losses caused by Earthquake and Volcanic Eruption.

STANDsure also includes insurance for additional costs and expenses associated with

Site clearing and replanting costs
Infrastructure damage
Fire fighting costs and levies imposed under the Forest and Rural Fires Act
Claims preparation costs, including costs associated with managing salvage operations

You can select the amount of cover for each of these additional extensions to the standard policy.

Pricing

FMR Risk has access to all insurers operating in the local market as well as accessing major overseas markets. Our presence in the NZ forestry sector has enabled us to negotiate exclusive arrangements with selected insurers - giving us the ability to offer unique options to our clients

Even when comparing our prices to less comprehensive products available our pricing proves competitive.
