## Scope of Advice

We provide advice to clients about their **general insurance needs** across both personal and business risks.

### Personal Insurance
Life's full of big moments. Our Advisers are able to personalise covers for your home, contents, vehicles, and more so that you can enjoy those moments.

### Business Insurance
Business can be complex, but our aim is to make your business insurance simple. Simple to understand and simple for you to use.

## Our Advice Process

### 1. Understand you and your needs
Whether you're an individual, a business, or a family, by getting to know you, and what's going on in your world, we'll put the right cover in place.

### 2. Undertake our analysis and quote
A key part of our advice process is to undertake an analysis of your needs, the available insurance options. After that, we'll engage with insurers to provide these options and negotiate on your behalf.

### 3. Present our recommendations
We'll make a recommendation based on your needs along with the available options. While this might have some complexities we'll take the time to walk you through it and answer any questions.

### 4. Implement what's agreed
Once you're happy with what we've recommended and understand it, we'll put in place the covers we agreed and provide evidence for those decisions.

### Ongoing Review
Your insurance protection should be reviewed as things change and we'll do this on an annual basis as part of our advice process with you, or more regularly if you notify us of changes. We will work hard to ensure the cover still meets your needs.
