Avant members own approximately 70% of the whole capital owned by the four Australian medical defence organisations. This provides members with unparalleled financial security, strength and support.
The economies of scale achieved by merging two medical defence organisations should lead to stable if not lower premiums for the foreseeable future, along with enhanced products and services.
