Austbrokers Southern is part of the national Austbrokers Network, established in 1985.

Austbrokers significant growth has been largely achieved through the acquisition of equity in selected insurance broking and financial services businesses that allows individual brokers to retain a significant interest in their own broking business.

This encourages initiative and dedication, allowing the businesses to preserve their local identity and management. This balance allows the individual firms to enjoy all the advantages of being part of a major group including group buying power with insurers, whilst maintaining local ownership and direction.

The Austbrokers network consists of 41 businesses which employ  more than 1,300 employees in over 90 different locations across Australia, with a turnover of around $1.3 billion in general insurance premiums, making it one of the top 4 broking operations in Australia (and the largest Australian owned insurance broker). Austbrokers is listed on the ASX (code AUB).
