Expression of Interest to Tender for the Equestrian Australia Insurance Broking and Conceptual Insurance Programme

Introduction

The principal objective of this Expression of interest is to attract tenders from suitable insurance brokers so we can establish the most suitable provider of Insurance Broking, Claims Management services for Equestrian Australia (EA).

It is incumbent upon each tenderer to acquaint themselves with the business, operations and activities of Equestrian Australia and its related risks, exposures, insurance, and risk management requirements.  

Equestrian Australia is the peak body for the administration of Equestrian Sport in Australia. The commitment to success is encouraged at every level of the sport and is reflected in world-class results at Olympic level.

To date, Australian Equestrians have won 9 Gold, 4 Silver and 8 Bronze medals at the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Our athletes have achieved great victories at peak international Equestrian events and as a result, Australia has earned the reputation as an elite Equestrian nation.

A big part of the success is the tireless commitment and excellence shown by our sport’s administrators, coaches, officials, volunteers, owners, and our athletes of all ages performing at all levels as well as the importance placed on sportsmanship and the welfare of horses.
