Who is NobleOak?
NobleOak is an insurer dedicated to providing a simple life insurance alternative, so that all Australian families who need protection are able to be covered easily and affordably. NobleOak offers a genuine local alternative to the dominant wealth businesses and banks (through insurance subsidiaries) selling insurance in Australia, with a transparent and cost effective range of products. Since 1877, NobleOak has worked hard to build and cement its reputation as a friendly society, synonymous with trust and integrity.
An insurer doesn’t operate for over 135 years if they’re not following through on their promises of transparency and integrity. A business isn’t able to consistently offer simple and affordable products without being dedicated to keeping their overheads low and operating as an APRA regulated insurer for reliability.
NobleOak adheres to four key elements to maintain consistency and value in their services:
- Make it happen. Means NobleOak will meet and execute the promises they make to clients, while remaining focussed on value and costs.
- Simplify. NobleOak keeps it simple by offering easy to understand products, application and communications with clients.
- Adapt. NobleOak has managed to remain a trusted and relevant insurer for since 1877 by being responsive to changes in the market and their customers’ needs, and adapting the use of new technologies to make their business more efficient.
- Be noble. As their name suggests, NobleOak will always put their policyholders and members needs first.
NobleOak Company History
A company doesn’t remain strong and well reputed in the Australian insurance industry without going through a few changes in its history, and for NobleOak these developments and improvements have included the foundation of the Druids Friendly Society in England in 1781, from which NobleOak has grown. In 1851, Bro James Hymen migrated from London to set up the Druids Lodge and then in 1861 NobleOak was first able to offer insurance to its members.
In 1877 the company NobleOak Life Limited was established as a mutual society. Over the years the company grew and adapted their services to the changing needs of their members, so that in 2011 NobleOak was able to demutualise and convert members to shareholders, providing greater access to capital and future growth.
