Stephen Pomfret will serve as managing director and additional offices and staff will be added later. He indicated that “Crawford is establishing a network of quality loss adjusters to handle claims throughout New Zealand. All of our clients can expect the highest standards of expertise and service from Crawford.”
Richard Martin, Crawford VP and managing director of the Asia Pacific region commented that Crawford’s first priority “is to support the local market,” and said that Crawford’s presence in New Zealand would also “help us serve our multinational clients,”
