What happened
The National Insurance Brokers Association Young Broker of the Year Awards involved five state winners who collectively chose a community grant recipient. Emily Booth, who works for Aon, was one of the five brokers who selected the Harcourt Football Netball Club near Bendigo. The club was chosen to receive a $25,000 grant funded by Vero for recovery from the January 2026 Victorian bushfires.
Why it matters
The selection process highlights the structural difference between sponsorship and substantive partnership within the insurance industry. The five brokers decided on the recipient, and Vero funded the outcome, rather than requiring Vero to approve the selection.
