What are the Mozo Experts Choice Awards?

Now in their tenth year, the Mozo Experts Choice Awards present an opportunity to highlight products in the market we believe offer great value to Australians.

For the 2023 Life Insurance awards, we analysed 20 different insurance companies.

“Having life insurance can give peace of mind in knowing that your loved ones will be taken care of financially if something unexpected happens to you, but finding the right cover can be hard with so many options in the market,” said Mozo Experts Choice Award judge, Peter Marshall.

“Our awards are based on thorough research, comparing both the cost of premiums and the benefits offered. Our results showed that there can be huge differences between policies; so checking out the winners of these awards can be a great way to start your search for a policy that suits your needs and budget.”

For details on how we crunched the numbers and determined our winners, see the 2023 Mozo Experts Choice Life Insurance Awards methodology report.

FAQs

How do I find the cheapest life insurance policy for me?

Check out the winners in the Exceptional Value category. Our experts crunched the data on a range of customer scenarios and these were the insurance companies and policies that came out the cheapest when compared to similar products.

It’s important to note that several factors go into determining the cost of life insurance such as your age, profession, gender, and if you smoke or not. So, you’ll still need to do a comparison of features and options to find a policy that is right for you and then get quotes so that you can compare the price based on your profile.

See Mozo’s life insurance hub to compare more options or read through our helpful life insurance guides to get up to speed on the industry.

What’s the Judging Criteria for the Mozo Experts Choice Awards?

Running since 2014, the Mozo Experts Choice Awards recognise products that deliver exceptional value or benefits to consumers. See our Mozo Experts Choice Life Insurance Awards methodology report for detailed information on how we performed product comparisons and determined the final Life Insurance Award winners for 2022.

Did you compare all life insurance policies in the market for these awards?

We collected pricing and cover information from 21 different insurance companies for the 2022 awards. We aim to include most life insurance companies in the market in the Mozo Experts Choice Awards. However, not every institution or product in the market will be included in our review. Any product we review must be available to the general public and in the market at the time of our analysis.
