I can provide a free, no obligation, no conflict review of your current Life and Disability risks. I will provide a bespoke and tailored recommendation of how to best cover yourself while balancing risk and your budget. This may be through providing a second pair of eyes on your current covers, recommending better structures and finding discounts, or providing a new plan if you don't have anything in place currently. As I am a salaried adviser, I have no conflict of interest that leads me to recommend certain insurers or certain levels of cover. You can feel safe knowing that what is recommended for you is purely based on what I feel is the best option for you. And there is no obligation. Additional information about the offer: I am also one of the few Life and Disability Advisers who specialises in Human Business Risk. These are the risks associated to humans within your business. This may be protecting the shareholders in the event one of the shareholders has a permanent exit from the business due to an illness or injury, or, covering the financial loss as a result of losing a key person in your business for a period of time. I can also help with employee retention and attraction by helping implement Group Medical or Group Life and Disability cover for your employees. This is a great employee benefit while providing ROI to your business.
