15 September 2021 dot 3 mins read
Melbourne, 15 September 2021– Life, health and wellbeing insurer AIA Australia has today announced that it has been selected by Colonial First State (CFS) to be its insurer, following a thorough market tender.
 
AIA Australia will provide insurance to the members of CFS's FirstChoice Employer Super, Essential Super, FirstChoice Personal and FirstChoice Wholesale Personal products.
 
AIA Australia CEO and Managing Director Damien Mu said that the team was extremely pleased and grateful for the appointment and opportunity to partner with CFS, to reimagine the CFS offering and introduce innovative new propositions and engagement tools to members.
 
"What makes us unique is our holistic focus on Australians' life, health and wellbeing, throughout their entire lives. The team and I are excited to create and deliver an exceptional experience for members, to support and empower them to live healthier, longer, better lives."
 
Over time, AIA Australia will introduce its digital capability to CFS's members, which includes education tools and its world-leading health and wellbeing program, AIA Vitality.
 
"An important part of providing value to superannuation members is giving them opportunities to engage with our products and services on an ongoing basis – not just when they need to make a claim. We want to help members to know more about their health and wellbeing – including their financial wellbeing – and understand how they can improve these important aspects of their lives," Mr Mu said.
