Here for the good of the country

We're proud to be the first B Corp general insurer in New Zealand.

B Corp Certification is considered the global gold standard for purpose-driven companies, committed to delivering benefits for people and the planet while remaining profitable.

The FMG difference

We're not like other insurance providers. FMG was created by farmers for farmers and has been supporting rural New Zealand for over 115 years.

As New Zealand's leading rural insurer with offices right across the country, FMG understands rural risks better than most and pride ourselves on offering specialist advice, products and support for rural New Zealand.

Being part of a mutual

Being a mutual is a different way of doing business because our shareholders aren't big overseas corporates, but rather our rural members. With more than 70,000 rural members at FMG, this means we make decisions based on what's good for rural New Zealand.

This makes us 100% New Zealand owned and operated and here for the good of the country.
