We started Buffer in 2020 with the goal of doing right by our clients. We're a small, family-run team of licensed Financial Advisers, and you'll deal with the same people from your first chat through to claim time.

Insurance is personal, so you should know who you're talking to. Pick someone and book a free chat, or call us and we'll match you with the right person.

Sascha is a drummer, and has performed live in front of thousands of people
He is a classic car enthusiast with a passion for collecting and restoring BMWs

Peter has a law degree, from his home country of South Africa
He loves to travel - his favourite country to visit is Germany

She has a background in emergency nursing
She’s slowly teaching herself piano- sometimes it sounds like music, sometimes it’s just noise!

Arron loves to travel and has been around the world.
He speaks three languages and is currently learning a fourth.

Fiona is originally from Seattle, Washington
She loves to cook and bake, but still hasn’t quite mastered sourdough (not giving up!)



Our story began with just the two of us — Peter and Sascha Nettmann — a father-and-son team with over 40 years of combined experience in the financial services industry. Originally from Cape Town, South Africa, we’ve made Auckland our home and are proud to serve Kiwis across New Zealand with exceptional insurance experiences.
As Buffer has grown, so has our team. Today, we’re a growing family-based business committed to making insurance easy, accessible, and stress-free.
