With an increasingly mobile wealthy clientele, WEALINS' offer, which combines flexibility, estate planning and security, perfectly meets the needs of this clientele. "

With the integration of GB Life, WEALINS is also expanding its range of products in particular with ePlatinum, a 100% digital solution that is simple, fast, easy to use and offers an "all-in" pricing, making it possible to serve a more diversified customer base. ePlatinum is as a first step distributed on the Belgian market.

It is by relying on the expertise, know-how and collaboration of our teams who are mobilised on a daily basis to satisfy our partners and their customers that we are also able to pursue our growth. "
