Our Story


MGA Insurance Group is regarded as one of Australia’s leading insurance brokerages, with 38 metro and regional offices and over 200 personnel, strategically located throughout Australia.

Who are we?


MGA’s insurance brokers have been specialising in general insurance for over 40 years, providing advice across a broad spectrum of occupations and industries.

MGA commenced operations in 1975, growing to become one of the top insurance brokerages in Australia, with offices throughout mainland Australia and one in Asia.

With over 65.000 clients and a branch network throughout Australia, MGA’s philosophy has been to maintain steady growth by providing access to a wide selection of insurers and always putting the needs of the client first.

Our Markets


MGA utilise all major Australian insurers, as well as selected international security. Our market access is as broad as our experience in any number of specialised insurance markets.

Our major insurer markets follow us in all regions, which have a diverse product mix, from rural covers to high-rise residential strata and from home insurance to corporate aviation.

A single insurer can be the best in their field with a particular product, however, there is no single insurer that provides the best products for all classes of business. This is why the very best insurance programs will often have more than one insurer involved.

This is something we can do easily with our market access and the way in which we work for you to make it easy to access a very broad range of insurers.

Over four decades of working together for growth

MGA has maintained steady growth since its formation in 1975.

In September 2014, our first international office was opened in Cambodia (Phnom Penh). 2014-15 a further 6 offices were opened in NSW and one in Shepparton (VIC), with another office in Toowoomba (QLD) following in 2020.
