The Insurance Council of Australia Limited has developed the General Insurance Code of Practice (the Code) as a voluntary code of practice for use by all insurers.

It is a self-regulatory code that aims to provide higher standards of customer service by making policy documents easier to understand, improving the claims process and complaints handling procedures.
