Partners& has been awarded gold status by Investor in Customers (IIC), an independent assessment and benchmarking organisation specialising in client service quality and the strength of client relationships. It is the second time the leading insurance advisory business has achieved the ‘exceptional standard’ as part of its client experience programme.
Having undertaken its first survey in May 2020, the second survey is part of Partners&’s continuing commitment to delivering exceptional outcomes for clients, establishing itself as the leading insurance advisory business in the UK.
Partners& fundamentally believes that the best client solutions are delivered by thoroughly understanding the needs, challenges and opportunities of its clients. The IIC survey explores the client relationships developed by Partners& across four dimensions:
- Understanding clients
- Designing solutions that meet client needs
- Delighting clients
- Building loyalty
In addition, the results are calculated to produce a net promoter score, which answers the question, “How likely are you to recommend this company”.
According to Partners& CEO, Phil Barton: “From the outset of Partners&, which we launched in April 2020, our aim has been to provide our clients with exceptional advice and unrivalled client service, enabling each of them to withstand the challenges presented by a complex and changing world. Our aim is to build resilience into our clients’ businesses so that they can achieve their plans and ambitions. As a business committed to a progressive approach which seeks continuous improvement these survey results both confirm the quality we deliver for clients and an opportunity to improve again.
“Through this latest exercise, our clients have told us what they need – now we are putting measures in place to respond to that feedback. This plan will drive our 2023 strategy around learning and development, relationship management and service enhancements to ensure the experience our clients have with us sets the standard in our industry.”
