Lance’s insurance career began in South Africa, where he built his expertise across personal and commercial lines before co-owning an insurance brokerage. That experience of running a brokerage, including managing client relationships, working with underwriters, and taking responsibility for the quality of advice provided, gave him a thorough grounding in what good insurance advice looks like in practice.

Since relocating to New Zealand in 2017, Lance has been part of the Threefold team, applying his international experience to the New Zealand insurance market. His dual-market background gives him a useful comparative perspective on how insurance products, pricing and risk are structured across different contexts.

Lance is well suited to working with:

• Homeowners and renters seeking well-structured home, contents, vehicle and watercraft cover
• First home buyers arranging insurance alongside their mortgage for the first time
• Commercial property owners and investors requiring buildings insurance
• Body corporate committees navigating their insurance obligations
• Business owners and self-employed professionals with liability insurance needs
• Clients who want thorough, considered advice rather than a quick policy placement

Advice is tailored to each client’s individual circumstances, assets and risk profile.

Lance Pooley is a general insurance adviser operating under FSP546126. Financial advice is provided in accordance with New Zealand financial services regulation and professional standards.
