Under the arrangement, Adviser Home will engage with their adviser community via web, email and social media to highlight business opportunities across the range of individual protection solutions offered by Zurich.
Commenting, Brendan Llewellyn, Adviser Home director, said: “There is a growing opportunity for advisers to develop protection businesses, particularly as we approach the winter months and mortgage sales reach a traditional lull. The partnership we’ve agreed with Zurich makes it as easy as possible for advisers, who we know are more overstretched than ever before, to access additional revenue opportunities.”
Andy Kirby, Adviser Home director, added:
“The Zurich relationship complements our existing strategic partnership with Just Retirement. We are expecting to build our range of partnerships focussing on growth markets in the adviser sector”.
Richard Howells, UK Intermediary Sales Director at Zurich commented:
“We are delighted to enter into a strategic partnership with Adviser Home on protection. There is an enormous responsibility on Zurich and the wider insurance industry to support advisers in helping them to educate their customers on the importance of protection and we believe this partnership will help us to deliver this. Zurich is well placed to provide strength and support to advisers with a commitment to ongoing investment and the Intermediary market as a whole."
