Liability insurance in New Zealand is a vital risk management tool designed to protect individuals and businesses against financial loss arising from legal claims of negligence. It encompasses public liability (covering accidental third-party property damage or injury), statutory liability (protecting against regulatory fines under acts like health and safety laws), and employers' liability. Because New Zealand's ACC scheme covers personal injury torts, liability policies primarily focus on third-party property damage and legal defense expenses.
