Get More From the Travel Vendors You Already Use
For investment professionals, travel is just part of the job. But for the back-office teams that support them, this means managing a variety of travel partners across the firm to meet the different needs of various team members- from associates to partners. We work with the major travel vendors – airlines, hotels, car services, and even corporate event coordinators - to ensure that you are not only getting the best rates, but also that your staff has access to the statuses, amenities, and benefits typically only available to the largest firms.
Maximize the Benefits of Your Travel Management Company
You may likely already work with a travel management company for your day-to-day travel needs. Concertiv partners with your TMC to administer travel savings programs, making business travel as painless and efficient as possible. In addition to travel discounts we negotiate for you, we aggregate global travel data and provide regular cost and savings reports. This ensures management has reporting insights needed to make better decisions, while providing your staff access to the best available rates and most convenient booking channels.
Remove the Back-office Burden and Lack of Transparency
Travel is typically a seven-figure spend that can be a black box for firms. As the cost of travel increases, firms are looking to lower travel spend, revamp global travel policies and review partners and programs while still allowing for flexible, high-end travel experiences. Concertiv works with our clients to deliver peer benchmarks on best practices and policies, deliver top quality services and unparalleled analytics and reporting so you can be confident your firm has the policies and program in place to reduce costs and maximize travel experiences.

Featured Case Study: Travel
A global investment advisor facing increasing travel costs, turned to the Concertiv.
Leveraging the combined spend of this global investment advisor with other Concertiv clients and affiliate firms, the Concertiv team was able to enroll the firm in discount programs that would reduce hotel and airfare costs by over 18%.
To help facilitate the administration of corporate travel, Concertiv lead an RFP process to find and onboard a travel agent that could grow with the firm and maximize utilization of available discounted rates.
