Lighthouse agreement with British Airways Clubs
Lighthouse Financial Advice ("LFA") is pleased to announce the signing of a three year exclusive contract to provide financial planning advice to members of British Airways Clubs ("BA Clubs"). This adds another major organisation to LFA's affinity partners, consisting of major employee organisations. This is an area in which Lighthouse has significant traction, and over recent years has attracted the likes of UNISON, the Civil Service Motoring Association (CSMA) and Prospect. Lighthouse offers its affinity partners a full range of financial advice services including investing for income and growth, retirement planning, pensions advice, tax planning including inheritance tax, life assurance and family protection as well as advice on saving for future family events such as university fees.
BA Clubs represents another significant affinity partner contract for Lighthouse, who will be advising circa 40,000 current or former BA staff members. The agreement commences on 1 July 2012, and all staff and members of BA Clubs will be educated about Lighthouse' client-focussed financial advice in mid-June.
Paul Harris, Managing Director Lighthouse Financial Advice, said: "This agreement represents a significant agreement for Lighthouse, and we are delighted to be working with such a world-leading brand to offer their members access to high quality personal financial advice."
Tony Dormer, Chief Executive of BA Clubs, said "BA Clubs has a contract to provide a voluntary benefit scheme for British Airways' employees as well as its own members. We are delighted to be able to add Lighthouse Financial Advice to our list of affinity partners; I am sure that the service they provide will prove a popular extension to our current Altitude Plus and Altitude Healthcare programmes."
Malcolm Streatfield, CEO of Lighthouse, commented: "We are pleased to continue to add to the affinity groups that we work with, and we look forward to providing BA Club members with financial advice. "
