Media release 

10 March 2025 

Fidelity Life is offering a helping hand to its Taranaki customers affected by the recent drought. 

From today, Fidelity Life customers who are facing financial hardship as a direct result of the drought in this area who are eligible can apply to have their premiums temporarily waived for up to 3-months, with the potential to extend for up to a further 3-months, without affecting their insurance protection.  

Fidelity Life’s Chief Commercial Officer Bronwyn Kirwan says the company really feels for the region and its farming community, who are dealing with these dry weather conditions.   

“As Taranaki deals with its driest conditions in over 50 years, we want to show our support for the struggles the community is facing. Our premium relief offer is one way we can help take some of the pressure off an already challenging time for our customers in the region.  

“We hope this support gives them one less thing to worry about, and gives them some peace of mind, knowing they’re protected for the long term.” 

To access the relief offer, Fidelity Life customers should contact their financial adviser or Fidelity Life on assistance@fidelitylife.co.nz.
