Paul Hodson
Director, BDO, Tauranga
Our accounting firm started to provide Audit Shield to clients in 2013. It was well timed as Inland Revenue audit activity has increased significantly since then.

Audit Shield is very user-friendly and easy to implement. Accountancy Insurance handles the production and mailing of invoices and letters; our time has been minimal in relation to the perceived value to our clients.
Cal Rogers

Clients are certainly happier that they're 'not on the clock' if an audit eventuates. Audit Shield offers our clients 'certainty' - a certainty that they won't be getting a bill from us when battling away IRD enquiries.
Bill Mancer
Director, Rise Accountants, Auckland
Offering Audit Shield, as an additional value-add service, actually educated our clients about the risks involved with filing inaccurate tax returns. Typical feedback from our clients has been that the Audit Shield coverage is a positive response to a tougher auditing climate and gives further peace-of-mind.
Andrew Hayes
Director, Andrew P Hayes Ltd, Oamaru
With Audit Shield the service is great. The online portal is simple to operate and the team at Accountancy Insurance is really helpful and supportive. Our increasing client take up of the Audit Shield cover indirectly tells us that our clients value the Audit Shield service and appreciate the additional support we provide by offering the cover.
