LIFE & EXECUTIVE BENEFITS
Personal Insurance / Life & Executive Benefits
Guided by the relentless pursuit of service, transparency and professionalism, we focus on answers to questions that have not yet been considered and are trusted as the one resource the market has struggled to find – an independent, objective and creative insurance firm that spans the intermediary space.
In an industry that has struggled to evolve beyond the transactional, we choose to put our own interests, or the interests of a particular company, aside to focus solely on the best interests of our clients. Simply put – we look at insurance planning through a consultative lens. We offer a new concept in risk planning, one that brings the entire picture into focus by providing coordinated advice about executive benefits, estate, tax, distributions, business succession and other financial matters.
It’s our job to find out what our clients need, not what we can sell them. Our empathetic approach is to understand what our clients want, the challenges they’re trying to solve and the opportunities ahead of them.
Insuring assets, income, businesses, investments, and of course — lives. Essentially, we ensure what’s of value will be there, when you need it.
Truly Independent
As a capital tool, enhancement solution, hedge or risk reduction strategy, insurance is a remarkable resource. But there is a dilemma; many brokerage agencies and insurance professionals do not understand asset structures, financial planning, regulation or what it means to be an independent professional. Most insurance brokers have a purely product-centric focus, while most agencies fail to consider the entire spectrum of resources and/or holistic planning. This, combined with proprietary obligations, restrictions on available products and lack of objectivity, creates a clear conflict of interest.
While many agents/brokers market themselves as independent, most are not and instead have duties to promote their employers’ interests and/or are limited by the terms of their contracts and are often not trained in financial analysis, fiduciary principles or law.
