For over 40 years our ethos has steadfastly been “doing what is right”.
In 1977 Bruce Penberthy established the business serving clients largely on the North Shore, Auckland. Over the years Penberthy’s family business approach was deepened, with sons Richard, John and Mark joining the company.
With Bruce retiring in 2017 the three brothers assumed the helm and continued the legacy, building Penberthy into what it is today – a multi-faceted business offering specialist advice and deep-seated support to our valued clients across New Zealand.
Today Penberthy maintains a strong focus on developing deep relationships with our clients and delivering advice, expertise and unwavering support that provides total peace of mind. Afterall, that’s what ‘doing what’s right’ is all about.
The Penberthy difference means robust solutions for all your insurance, mortgage and financial needs.

Community means the world to us.
A lot changes when you’ve been in business 40 plus years, but one constant for Penberthy is the deep connection we have to community. Founder Bruce Penberthy knew that helping the community also meant knowing what matters to the families we serve – cheering local teams from the side lines, turning up at school events, supporting local initiatives, and being there through thick and thin.
Nothing has changed over the years; in addition to financial support across myriad different initiatives, this is still the way that sons Richard, Mark, John and the team at Penberthy do community. Being out there, with the families we love to serve.

Penberthy is owned and managed by the Directors who work within the business and are involved directly in providing expert advice and service to our clients. We impart our strong family values to the way we do business.
We are there when you need us, we take a greater level of care and we always, always have your back.
