Our client philosophy:

We believe that insurance can be a powerful tool to bring enormous value to your life- both as families and business owners. It’s not about the product, it’s about the value it can bring to you. For example, for a parent or partner it’s about ensuring the roof over your family is secured if you are no longer able to provide for them. It’s about the future you want to help create for your children through their education. It’s about the lifestyle you would like your family to enjoy if you are no longer able to fund it.

And for a business owner it’s about whether what you’re building today can still help you realise your dreams for tomorrow. It’s about protecting your family home from business creditors. It’s about making sure that your business can still operate if a key person is not there, even temporarily. And it’s about making sure that if you are unable to return to your business, that you or your family will be able to extract the value from it that you worked so hard for to achieve.

Where we can help you:

We look after:
  • Life and health insurance needs
  • For families and businesses
  • Whether on an individual or group basis

Very simply, our approach is to help you identify your goals and dreams, then help you put the plans in place today to protect them- whether that’s for you and your family, for your business, or both.

How we do it:

 We focus on you and the advice you need. And the process we can take you through is simple, but comprehensive: 
  1. we seek first to understand you, which includes "analysing" what you tell us
  2. then we identify areas of risk or concern to you
  3. we make recommendations on steps you can take to help address those risks
  4. we work with you to implement your plan and to ensure as far as is possible that it remains relevant to your needs.

See it as a journey of discovery, at the end of which you get to make informed decisions about your family and/ or your business.
Sometimes you will want the full insurance planning service, to provide you and/ or your family or business with a plan on how to manage the main insurable risks. And sometimes you may just be needing information on specific products or levels of cover- in other words, not wanting an insurance plan to help you determine your needs. We can do that for you, as long as we’re both happy you understand the differences (and possible implications for you) between the 2 types of services. 

And where necessary we will work with your accountant, your lawyer, and other professional advisers to help you achieve that. If you don’t have a lawyer or accountant, we can recommend one to you.
