Who do you turn to in a
changing climate?
In the midst of what is undeniably an unsteady
financial climate, I am delighted that more and more
people are choosing Friends Provident Internationalto provide the financial solutions they need, whether
in Europe, the Middle East, Asia or beyond.
They are, I believe, drawn to us for three simple
reasons: the quality of products on offer, the
outstanding service that backs them and the
excellent relationships enjoyed with business
partners and distributors. It’s these three qualities
that are behind the strong growth of our internationalbusiness in recent years.
And in a market that’s experiencing some fluctuation,
we offer an added benefit – stability. Our Group’s
long experience in the UK – approaching 180 years
– represents enviable longevity and provides a
strong foundation for our international expertise.
Today, I’m proud to say that Friends Provident
International is a strategically important and
valued businesswithin the Friends Provident
Group, with a clear focus on providing real value
to customers and earning respect and admiration
in the many territories we serve.
