Barclays Corporate and Employer Solutions has partnered with Aegon to supply corporate protection, including shareholder and partnership protection and loan protection risks, to small and medium-sized employers.

The arrangement will also offer employers:

  • An individual pricing facility to enable premiums to be among the best in the market (subject to terms).
  • Immediate cover for applications while medical underwriting is taking place.
  • Mobile health checks and executive medical feedback.
  • Enhanced service standards, including prioritised follow-up of outstanding information in order to further reduce time between application and completion

Richard Phelps, head of Barclays Corporate and Employer Solutions, said: “It is our experience that small, growing organisations often underestimate the importance of protecting the risks relating to their people.

“By joining forces with Aegon we aim to provide employers with a competitively-priced, streamlined and efficient service that effectively meets their needs.”
