Your Voice, Your Code The Code sets the professional standards for insurance broking in Australia. It is your Code. For it to work, it must reflect both the needs of the consumers you serve and the practical realities of professional broking practice. This is your opportunity to help shape the revised Code. Whether you’ve been in the profession for decades or are early in your career, your practical experience matters. We want to hear what works, what doesn’t, and how the Code can be strengthened while remaining workable.
