EMPLOYEE BENEFITS FOR BUSINESS REWARDS. WITH SERVICE THAT S REWARDING. It might be stating the obvious, but employee benefits are extremely beneficial. Not just for employees though. Better staff retention and recruitment are part of it, but it goes deeper still. With the right strategy, employee benefits can really strengthen the relationship between employer and employee and build understanding and loyalty, creating a better working environment for everyone. There is no one size fits all solution however, and we ll need to get to grips with your specific operation and the issues you face. With that as a basis we can design a strategy that does the job you need it to. Maybe even better than you expect it to. Our expertise covers: Staff Pension Schemes Flexible Benefit Schemes Group Protection: Life Assurance Income Protection Critical Illness We keep an eye on things moving forward too, so we can react to any changes to your set up, or to standards in your industry, and adapt things accordingly. Flexible and agile to the last, that s us. Budget is obviously a determining factor, so we promise not to get carried away, and we can phase your plan in over time, if that makes sense. You may have to gird your loins; this whole area can get quite complex, but we ll explain everything in straightforward terms and offer impartial advice you can trust, to make sure our service is as rewarding as your benefits package.

RISK MANAGEMENT FOR BUSINESS CBG FOR BUSINESS COMPLIANCE. OUR UNDERSTANDING IS COMPLETE. The biggest risk we face here is making you feel like running for the hills. Risk management can get a bit technical, and there are lots of aspects to consider. But we thrive on the complex. Every business is under pressure to comply with legislation and with the conditions of their insurance policies. They need to identify risks and act accordingly. Our skilled assessors and surveyors know exactly what to look for, and are extremely thorough (verging on the obsessive). They ll highlight the issues to consider, offer straight-forward advice and provide all the help you need to be completely compliant. The upshot is that your business is protected as well as it can be against anything that could conceivably go wrong.

Improve performance, enhance your reputation and lower your premiums.
FINANCIAL PLANNING FOR BUSINESS CBG FOR BUSINESS SECURITY. CO-ORDINATED WITH ACUITY. Money s got very convoluted in this day and age.

The joy of it is, our financial bods thrive on the complex, and pride themselves on piecing all the different elements into a clear and straightforward financial plan. They start with a thorough health check of your business to work out exactly what you need and what your goals are.

The aim is better financial security, both for your business, and your own future.

HEALTHCARE FOR BUSINESS CBG FOR BUSINESS NURTURE. FOR THE FUTURE. For a moment, think of your staff purely as a resource. Equipment. Like a printer. If your printer s faulty and not working properly, you get a technician out straightaway to fix it. But if a member of the team has a health issue that s stopping them functioning as normal, they may have to wait weeks or months for treatment. That s clearly awful for them. But it s not great for you either. Corporate healthcare not only means a faster recovery for your staff, it also means you have a more productive workforce. In short, it s win win. Offering impartial advice, we can help research, design and implement an appropriate healthcare scheme within your budget, and we ll keep on top of things to make sure any changes are accounted for. What we re after is healthy, happy staff, and a healthy, happy business.

AFFINITY PARTNERSHIPS FOR BUSINESS CBG FOR BUSINESS TOGETHER. WE CAN BE STRONGER. There are definite perks to being part of a group, but with CBG, it goes beyond simply discounting rates. We can work with diverse affinity partnerships, such as charities, trade unions, membership organisations and professional bodies to add real value to their member services and benefits. We dig deep to uncover the things members have in common, then work out special terms to suit each specific group. (If you re not sure what we re on about, don t worry, we ll talk everything through with you.) If you d prefer the products or services we agree on to look as if they re coming directly from your organisation, that s fine, we ll white label them so you can add your own branding.
