Collaboration Centric Solutions -It’s the core of what we do. Working together to fundamentally change the face of employee benefits consulting. Member firms joined forces for this sole purpose: strategic collaboration with our clients, carriers, and technology partners to create innovative product and service offerings that deliver greater quality and value. We represent a refreshing approach to the increasingly commoditized public firm strategy of consolidation nationally. While the majority of the marketplace is served by big box national firms with little ability to offer unique products and services, C2 member firms stay true to our independent roots, with global reach and local touch, in order to meet the increasing needs of our growing client base.
