About AIB : Associated Insurance Brokers

Associated Insurance Brokers (AIB) was established in 1983 by Clive Sussman and Harry Casper and is currently the one of the largest independent insurance brokerages in Cape Town. Both founder members are still actively involved in the brokerage and have been in the insurance industry for more than 27 years each. Jean Gloyne was appointed as Director in 1998, bringing a further 23 years of experience to the fray.

Clive, Harry and Jean have developed into a formidable directorate with complimentary skills and a similar passion to service the needs of their clients.

AIB began its operation from a small office in Cape Town Centre in 1983 with two members of staff. In 1991, the business purchased a property in Tamboerskloof and the staff complement swelled to 24 in an attempt to accommodate the growing needs of the clients.

In 1995, AIB built their own offices, AIB House, in Green Point and established itself as a brokerage capable of managing, with distinction, the relationships with its clients.

AIB's position in the insurance industry was reinforced by the results of the 1997 Professional Management Review (PMR) Survey, in which AIB was rated as the third best short-term corporate insurance brokerage in South Africa. In the period that has followed, AIB has successfully held this position in commercial and industrial insurance and has been consistently rated as 'excellent' in the areas of administration, accuracy of documentation and customer service. In addition to these categories, clients rated AIB as outstanding with regard to an 'awareness of short-term insurance trends and market conditions'.

AIB currently maintains a client base which boasts in excess of five thousand policies and provides superior service and advice in all areas of short term insurance. Throughout AIB's history, the brokerage has enjoyed in excess of 20% growth in turnover year on year. This growth has been as a result of providing personal attention to clients and a commitment to meeting their needs as well as maintaining excellent relationships with insurance companies.

AIB relocated to Century City in 2001. AIB has uniquely positioned itself and is committed to servicing the needs of clients throughout the greater Cape Town area as well as continuing to contribute to the South African business community.
