View descriptionShare

New Zealanders are among the most underinsured in the OECD, according to the Financial Services Council.  

We insure our cars, our houses and our other stuff, but not what is arguably our biggest asset - ourselves.

Today, Nadine is digging into the specifics of insurance, and our avoidance of it, with insurance adviser Willie Moala.
