Sesame Bankhall Group has designed a new “bounce back” hub to help advisers survive the covid-19 crisis.

The hub will provide members of the Sesame network and PMS Mortgage Club with practical tools and information split into four sections:

• The new normal: analysis of what the new world looks like and the lessons that can be learnt for future planning, including changes in consumer behaviour and how this may influence the way business is conducted going forwards.
• Business resilience: advice to firms about how to make their business more robust so that it is better able to withstand crises in the future.
• Business growth: help with identifying the opportunities for advisory firms that have been created by the crisis. This includes insight on how firms can become leaner and more productive. 
• Good news stories: A round-up of hints, tips and uplifting articles accumulated during the  lockdown, to highlight the human resilience and togetherness shown during these challenging times. 

The initiative follows the launch of a covid-19 adviser support hub in March, providing personal wellbeing tips, market updates and Q&As.

Sesame Bankhall executive chairman John Cowan says: “Throughout this crisis we have stayed close to advisers in order to understand the challenges they’re facing. 

“This includes recognising that the mortgage and wealth firms we serve have been affected in different ways. 

“While the immediate priority for advisers was to deal with the issues the crisis created for their business and clients, more and more firms are now turning their attention to how they navigate towards a post- crisis market. “SBG is committed to supporting all advisers, wherever they are on their journey, because one thing is clear: we will come out of this.”
