We offer tailored risk management solutions to ensure our members feel safe, confident and supported at all times.

Members own the mutual

CivicRisk is owned by members, for members — and every voice matters in our decision-making process.

Collaboration amongst councils

Collaboration and teamwork are in our DNA. By working together, we’ve built relationships, reduced claims and saved $93.3 million which would have otherwise gone to insurers.

Expert and specialist support

We have a prompt service of dedicated advisors supported by our funding to mitigate risk, resolve claims and collaborate with agencies.

Quality cover

Our creative solutions help councils avoid and mitigate catastrophes at affordable rates. This is the reason that we have had 8 new members in the past 2 years: Saving them money while providing an ownership model for ongoing returns.

Transparency and sustainability

We pursue a strategy that is transparent and sustainable. All information relating to claims, surplus and contributions are open, visible and accessible.

Professional development

All members are afforded the opportunity to develop their skills and competencies through our professional development program — which entails bespoke risk and claims training for safer, more secure communities.

Join other like-minded councils in building safer, more resilient communities.
