    Frequently asked questions

    What types of businesses do you support?

    We support SMEs, the self-employed and their managers in French-speaking Switzerland across all sectors. Our positioning is aimed just as much at businesses already advised by the Berney Associés group as at any other company or self-employed professional wishing to review their insurance cover.

    Why use Berney Associés for my corporate insurance?
    As an independent, unbound broker, we champion your interests and not those of any particular insurance company. Furthermore, our integration within the Berney Associés fiduciary group enables us to quickly understand the economic reality of your business without having to start from scratch.
    How does the analysis of my insurance needs and policies take place?
    The process takes place in three stages: an audit of your current cover, a competitive tendering process among market insurers to identify the best terms, and then the ongoing management of your policies once the choices have been validated with you.
    How much time should I devote to the procedure?
    Very little: an initial discussion to understand your situation, followed by the forwarding of your current policies. The bulk of the analysis and comparison work is then handled on our side.
    How much does your support cost?
    If you entrust us with the management of your insurance, our remuneration comes from commissions paid by the insurance companies, with no direct billing on our part. If you wish to use our services without entrusting us with this management (for example, for an analysis or a one-off tender), fees will then be billed to you, based on a prior written agreement.
    Can I keep my current insurers?
    Yes. Our role is first to analyse your existing cover: if it is suitable and competitive, we can simply manage it without changing insurers. Tendering is only proposed if it is of genuine benefit to you.
    What does a request for an analysis of my situation commit me to?
    To nothing. This initial analysis does not obligate you to change insurer or to sign anything: you remain entirely free to follow up on our recommendations or not.
    Do you already need to be a client of Berney Associés?
    No. Our insurance service is open to any business or self-employed person, whether you are already advised by the Berney Associés group or not.
    What types of insurance do you manage?
    We can assist you with practically all of your insurance needs, with the exception of basic private health insurance.
    How long am I bound by your contract if I sign?
    The management mandate is concluded for an indefinite period and may be terminated at any time, without any specific justification. For organisational purposes, we simply ask that you inform us in writing, ideally three months in advance, though this period is never a legal constraint on your termination.
