    Consulting

    Uncertainties and changes are omnipresent. There are many situations in which a short-term review by an external expert makes sense and an independent second opinion is a key element in decision-making. Therefore, we are happy to work for you on a project basis and support you with the following services.

    Company start-up / M&A

    In the case of a company start-up or in the context of an M&A situation (spin-off, company merger), an independent assessment is of great importance in order to exclude possible conflicts of interest:

    • Strategic and conceptual advice for start-ups
    • Advice on employee benefits strategy
    • Due diligence regarding existing insurance solutions
    • Benchmarking (qualitative and quantitative)

    Communication and training

    Do you have a well-developed employee benefits programme, but you are not sure whether your employees know, understand and appreciate it? Professional communication by an independent body often makes a big difference:

    • Create and revise employee fact sheets and handbooks.
    • Employee information events
    • Training for company and staff on Swiss social insurance

    Tendering on the market

    Your company manages the insurance solutions independently because you have the relevant knowledge inhouse. Nevertheless, you would like to review the contracts in the market: 

    • Product & market information
    • Contract & performance analysis including benchmarking
    • Review of price and conditions by means of market tender; premium/benefit comparison

    Special solutions / Wellbeing

    You are looking for special solutions in the market or would like to enrich your benefits portfolio with (prevention) offers for your employees:

    • Development of appropriate benefit/coverage concepts
    • Cooperation with short-term absence, wellbeing and expatriate specialists
    • Occupational health management / Wellbeing consulting
