CHU Underwriting Agencies has introduced significant enhancements to its residential strata insurance policies, focusing on built-in liability coverage and immediate price visibility.
These reforms aim to make coverage more responsive to the realities of modern strata living and streamline the insurance process for brokers and clients alike.

A central feature of the update is the inclusion of built-in liability coverage, designed to bridge gaps in coverage and ensure strata owners are better protected. This enhancement reflects CHU's commitment to evolving insurance solutions in line with customer needs.

In addition to policy enhancements, CHU has launched an indicative pricing feature that provides brokers with immediate, non-binding premium estimates. This tool improves visibility and reduces delays in the quoting process, allowing brokers to deliver better outcomes for their clients and spend more time supporting strata communities.

These innovations have earned CHU recognition as one of Insurance Business' 5-Star Insurance Innovators for 2025, underscoring the company's dedication to practical improvements that respond to customer needs. By addressing bottlenecks in both coverage and process, CHU continues to support brokers, strata managers, and owners with solutions that evolve alongside the environment they operate in.
