We Are Not Financial Advisers

We are financial services management consultants. That means we provide management consulting services only to the industry and offer no financial advice. If you are looking for financial advice we recommend you seek an appropriately experienced and qualified Financial Advice Provider. 

Sometimes we write about different features or components of insurance and present them in a way which makes it easier to compare. It is not a recommendation or opinion about which product to purchase. Interpretation of insurance contracts is difficult and we recommend that you seek the advice of a licensed financial advice provider experienced in providing insurance advice. The information is intended as a guide to comparison only. Due to the risk of errors and omissions and necessary assumptions made in considering how products might operate in the future financial advisers and their clients should always refer to the actual policy documents issued by the insurer to satisfy themselves on any particular point and, where necessary, seek legal advice.

We Are Not Legal Advisers or Accountants

While we often highlight legal or financial issues for our clients we always request that you seek your own independent legal advice. Our domain is to consider the business implications, usually in the areas of marketing, strategy, and product design.
