Boutique wealth management and advisory firm Cardena Private Wealth* (Cardena) Director Jonathan Kilborn has announced the expansion of the organisation’s client offering with the addition of life insurance protection to provide a more holistic advice service.

 

The insurance offering is the culmination of an extensive alliance with specialist risk consultancy MBS Insurance that has been providing personal insurance and related consultancy services to Cardena clients over the past 12 months.

"From the beginning, the Cardena-MBS Insurance relationship had many synergies, and I couldn’t be more excited about the new formal alliance outcome ", said Jonathan Kilborn.

"For Cardena, it was an acknowledgement that personal insurance is very much a highly specialist and complex area that requires expert guidance to navigate the numerous providers, offerings, variations and options required to address the specific individual needs of HNW families, professionals and business owner clients".

"Hence it was important to partner with a personal insurance specialist with a proven track record of providing expert personal insurance advice and end-to-end support from underwriting to processing claims – MBS Insurance ticked all the boxes", affirmed Jonathan Kilborn.
