Policy Documents
You’ve found your way to some of the most important documents we’ve ever written. Insurance is a tricky little thing and we try to make it as simple and easy for you as possible, but the law says we have to give you all the specific details of it in a Product Disclosure Statement (or PDS for short). You’ll soon find out they tell you everything about what’s covered, and what’s not, under Essentials by AAI’s car or contents insurance policies.
