Doing Business in Australia – A Guide for Insurtechs

Insurtech Australia, in collaboration with Hamilton Locke, has prepared this guide to assist overseas based insurtech businesses to understand the process of expanding or setting up their operations in Australia.

The guide provides a high-level overview of the Australian insurance and insurtech sectors, the regulatory environment, federal government initiatives, cross-border provision of services and the upcoming reforms affecting privacy and data.

The August 2026 revision of the guide includes updates to:

  • The GI Code of Practice
  • The Regulation of foreign services providers
  • The rollout of CDR relating to insurance
