HMT's financial services advice is undertaken by a subsidiary company, The Employee Benefits Corporation Ltd ("EBC") www.ebconline.co.uk. EBC has been part of the HMT Group since 1994 and is led by Andrew Botterill. We work closely with all the departments at HMT and are therefore able to provide a holistic approach to our advice. As one might expect, the main focus of our activity is in the corporate market, however, we have also developed a successful and fast expanding personal financial advice service.

As a company grows, the focus will necessarily be on the development of the business and developing further growth and profits. However it is easy to ignore the value of establishing an effective employee benefits strategy, which can have the varied benefits of being an excellent means of staff motivation and retention, as well as providing a tax efficient method of rewarding employees.

Our approach is to provide a bespoke service to our clients responding to their individual needs. Analysing the strengths and weaknesses of the current benefits package and helping them to attain a benefits strategy that meets their objectives.

Our clients range from owner managed companies to companies registered on AIM, Nasdaq and The London Stock Exchange. We understand the issues facing various company structures and are focussed on providing a solution orientated approach designed to add value to investments and reduce the time the client spends on administering its employee benefit package.

We liaise closely with our tax and other colleagues to provide a multi disciplinary approach. EBC is ideally placed to advise on a range of corporate issues whether it be establishing an effective employee benefit package or developing a specific retirement package for directors.

A natural consequence of our involvement in providing corporate financial solutions is that we have become involved in providing personal financial solutions for directors and employees of our corporate clients. Our personal financial department has built on this success and we have developed our service to be a key part of our business.

Our approach is based on the same ethos as with our corporate clients, that is to develop long term relationships with clients, designing long term bespoke financial strategies that are flexible to accommodate changing circumstances.

We can provide solutions for all personal financial objectives. We do this by providing access to experienced consultants, an efficient and friendly service, a commitment to maintaining independent financial advice and access to a variety of research tools to help develop the most appropriate financial strategy.

The Employee Benefits Corporation Ltd is an appointed representative of The M&E Network Ltd, which is regulated by The Financial Services Authority.
