Arete Risk & Insurance

We offer a bespoke risk advisory service for businesses and industry.

Areté empowers our advisors to provide a bespoke risk advisory service, build their portfolios and deliver better customer service, supported by a national and international network of businesses and insurance suppliers.

Areté is part of the Aviso Group, a member of the Steadfast network and backed by Envest, a subsidiary of UK-headquartered Ardonagh Group.

In Australia, Envest and its partners place more than $1.6bn GWP (AUD) in premiums, making it one of the region’s largest independent insurance distribution businesses.

Our parent company, The Ardonagh Group, complements this with a global presence, capability, and assets in the United Kingdom, United States of America, Europe, and Asia.

Collectively the Group places more than $14bn GWP (USD) of premium to market, and Ardonagh Specialty is the largest independent wholesale broker in the London market, providing an essential gateway for us to manage complex placements.

Our industry support and access are backed at a client level by the expertise and experience of our risk advisors. Combining experience, professionalism, industry knowledge, flexibility, and personalised service, we manage your risk profile and insurance requirements. 

We are client-focused, have a planned approach and access to a global network of providers to deliver only the best service to our clients.
