Stonebridge adopts CIExpert in new protection drive
18 August 2014
Stonebridge Group, the mortgage and insurance network, has announced it will be offering CIExpert, the critical illness knowledge base, to all its advisers from today (18th August 2014).
Stonebridge has evaluated the benefits of CIExpert for its network advisers and believes it to be exactly the type of cutting-edge technology that its advisers need access to.
CIExpert will make its online service available to Stonebridge Group network members with the accounts automatically configured to select either their limited life panel or whole-of-market offering - whichever the AR firms choose to use.
Stonebridge advisers also have full support from the Stonebridge compliance team to make use of CIExpert’s critical illness comparison research tools in order to improve the speed and efficiency of the compliance process.
Richard Adams, Managing Director of Stonebridge Group, commented:
“The complexity involved in comparing critical illness plans has always created challenges in selling protection and we believe CIExpert’s statistics-based approach is an excellent service that removes the laborious elements for advisers. The service improves the quality of advice provided, efficiency for the adviser and automatically creates reports to support the compliance process. This is also an income-generating opportunity for our advisers that will significantly improve their research, enabling them to provide their clients with an informed choice.”
Alan Lakey, Director of CIExpert said:
“Stonebridge has demonstrated it is a business that can make decisions quickly to improve the services available to its members and we applaud that. We are delighted that Stonebridge has chosen to partner with CIExpert and believe we can really assist them in improving the quality and efficiency of advice that will directly drive increased protection sales into their business.”
