International Benefits Network - About Us

Today's business environment is truly international. Mergers, acquisitions, and other types of cross-border investments have become commonplace as successful organisations continue to seek profitable growth.   These organisations know that to succeed outside their home country they must accommodate cultural and structural differences in each country where they have local business operations.

This is especially true in the area of international employee benefits (IEB) where the package needs to be competitive, motivational and cost effective in local terms.   At the same time, multinational companies (MNCs) want a package that is integrated as far as possible with their global benefit philosophy.

The International Benefits Network, established in 1989, is a network of recognised leaders in employee benefit consultancy in the developed world.   Each IBN member firm has expert knowledge and judgment and this is continually employed in servicing the needs of clients.

Through the International Benefits Network, you can have a consultant who:

• provides expert advice on his own country;
• understands you, your organisation and its policies;
• has speedy access to specialist advice on current conditions in other countries;
• can, as a result of relationships within the IBN Network, analyse your problem efficiently and develop recommendations;
• can implement the agreed solution utilising, as required, other members of IBN to undertake the work or put you in touch with other respected professionals (accountants, lawyers, etc) in the appropriate countries.
