Useful products and discounts
Insurance
AVA members receive a premium reduction for professional indemnity insurance provided through Guild Insurance. For proprietors the reduction is approximately 25%, and for non-proprietors this can be as high as 50%. This significant reduction reflects the improved risk that AVA members represent due to the broad risk management framework in place between Guild and the AVA.
