BOPLASS councils achieved significant savings in their 2024-25 infrastructure insurance placements, with premium reductions of up to 20% compared to non-collective procurement. This represents hard savings for BOPLASS councils, while they also benefit from improved terms not available to standalone clients. Direct engagement with international and local markets, backed by high-quality data, and long-standing relationships, proved to be instrumental to this noteworthy outcome. BOPLASS continues to explore alternative risk transfer options to further reduce costs while also strengthening council resilience.
