Why do NCOSS members need insurance?

Aon is the preferred insurance broker for NSW Council of Social Service (NCOSS) and has assisted the community sector for over 30 years. Over this time, we’ve come to understand the risks commonly faced by your industry, and after listening to your feedback, want to help grow your knowledge and make applying for the right insurance easy.

As a result, Aon has created a simple, online tool called the NFP Insurance Puzzle Helper. As all NFPs are unique, it makes sense your insurance package is too, for example, you may need Public Liability Insurance but not Property cover. So, from a range of tailored and affordable products Aon can arrange for NCOSS members, the Insurance Puzzle Helper will help you identify, and apply for online, only those covers that you might need.

Not-for-profit Cyber Insurance
Cyber insurance protects NFP organisations from Internet-based risks, and more generally risks relating to IT infrastructure and activities. Cyber risk is an exposure that no modern business can escape, and the financial impact of system interruption, privacy and cybercrime events are now felt within all industries.1

As a Not-for-profit, you may store a lot of personal information on your systems. With the recent rise in cyber hacks and attacks, and the fact that standard insurance policies may not protect you in the event of one, if your organisation did fall victim to a cyber attack, the financial implications could be very significant.

In response, Aon has worked with our cyber risk experts to develop a comprehensive and competitively priced insurance cover that protects your Not-for-profit organisation.

In arranging certain NFP policies, Aon has binder agreements with relevant insurers under which Aon is authorised to commit such insurers to providing cover without reference to them. When acting under a binder we will be acting under an authority given to Aon by the insurer and will be effecting the insurance contract as agent of the insurer and not as your agent. Our binder arrangements with insurers are such that we remain your agent in the handling of any claim. If you purchase this insurance, Aon will receive a commission that is a percentage of the premium, Further information can be found in our FSG or provided upon request.
