WHAT ARE ADVISERS TALKING ABOUT ON PROTECTION FORUM – 7 THINGS YOU SHOULD READ

Our monthly protection forum is an opportunity for advisers, insurers and other industry professionals to come together and share ideas, offer opinions and discuss a wide range of important topics. One particularly interesting and timely discussion on our July forum was the upcoming FCA Consumer Duty, with some excellent viewpoints offered by Johnny Timpson and Robert Sinclair. Back in the June meeting we focused on a number of issues, from how best to promote protection to consumers, to the impact Covid will have on income protection products and sales. In this ‘7 things you should read’, we’ve pulled together all of the transcripts from our two most recent forums. 

We took a break in August, so our next forum is scheduled for Tuesday 7^th September. We’ve lined some interesting topics for discussion, that we’re sure advisers and insurers will have strong views on. Register to attend here.
