FROM THE PRESIDENT'S DESK Tom Doney, President, Cypress Benefit Administrators
With the January 2010 renewals and implementations behind us, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our business associates for a tremendous 2009 and a great start to 2010 for Cypress Benefit Administrators.
With the renewal of over 95% of our existing business and addition of multiple new clients across the country throughout the past year, Cypress has experienced a 27% growth rate between February 2009 and January 2010! It goes without saying that we couldn't have reached such a lofty milestone without the loyalty of our clients, hard work of many brokers and consultants, and fabulous work by our many vendor partners.
