About Millennium
Millennium’s origins date back to the late 1980’s when MGA managed a wholesale business called “Commercial Farmers Insurance Agencies” (CFI). CFI was established to meet the needs of MGA’s growing regional and agricultural presence in Australia.
Fast forward a few years – in 1998 Millennium Underwriting Agencies was established in response to a changing insurance market, industry regulation and risk management transparency. Under the new business called Millennium, the business continued to supply MGA Insurance Brokers with claims and underwriting solutions.
Today, Millennium’s core charter is to provide exclusive underwriting and claims services and risk placement solutions to the MGA Insurance Group and their broker network across Australia. Millennium play a crucial role in managing insurer security, broker partnerships and core underwriting and claims services for MGA’s thriving portfolios.
Millennium has a team of experienced and committed underwriters and claims specialists providing exceptional service to our broking networks and their customers.
