During 2015, here at BWTC Ltd we launched our own Funeral Plan products to enable our member associates to offer comprehensive Estate Planning solutions to clients.
We are extremely pleased to report that for those who have taken up this additional product, their fee earnings have increased and customer satisfaction has been high with the product personalisation and affordability aspects being well regarded.
It has been extensively reported that the cost of a basic funeral has risen for the 12th year in a row, rising more than 90% since 2004 and with this in mind, we must inform you that an uplift in our funeral plan prices will be effective from 1st January 2016.
