The series saw ter Brake and 39 Chubb Life NZ staff travel 13,500 kilometres from Auckland to Invercargill to outline the company's strategy and adviser partnership approach.

A former adviser herself, ter Brake said Chubb Life NZ is focused on exceeding adviser expectations, and pointed to recent product and service improvements based on adviser feedback.

"Our growth over the past few years is a reflection of the trust Advisers place in us to be there for their customers when they need us most. We do not take this for granted," ter Brake said.

Independent Financial Advisers Association general manager Peter Standish attended one event and praised ter Brake's "commitment, clear vision and uncompromising industry leadership" in an industry facing ongoing change.
