Protecting your business clients

Are you making the most of business protection opportunities?

Business protection and relevant life cover policies account for only 2.8% of protection sales, with pure business protection less than 1%*. With over 1.4 million small to medium sized businesses in the UK with employees**, there’s a clear need for protection should something happen to a key employee . We’re here to help you identify the opportunity to provide your business clients with the protection they may need.
