Canada Life launches equity release workshops

Canada Life Home Finance has launched two additional workshops for equity release-qualified financial advisers.

The additional ‘Setting the Standard’ workshops which are free of charge to attend will take place in London in September and October, following continued demand from advisers.

Alice Watson (pictured), head of marketing and communications at Canada Life Home Finance, said: “To sustain the growth of the lifetime mortgage market, it’s important to ensure that advisers have the right tools and information to meet customer demands.

“That is why at Canada Life, we are looking to help ensure advisers are equipped to meet these demands.

“Our 2019 series ofSetting the Standard workshops have been incredibly popular, particularly with qualified advisers who needed a confidence boost in applying the theory they had learnt to real life scenarios.

“We’ve added two more Setting the Standard workshops to our 2019 calendar, to further show our strong commitment to supporting advisers in the later-life lending market.

“Through hosting the workshops, we’ve found advisers of all levels and capabilities are keen to improve their knowledge on how to provide the best service to customers and help sustain healthy market growth.

“We’re pleased to be able to support advisers to achieve these goals.”

The sessions are intended for newly qualified advisers or for those looking for new ways to win business.

Attendees will learn best practice from industry experts and guidance on how lifetime mortgages can help customers unlock property wealth.

These sessions follow Canada Life’s first series of ‘Setting the Standard’ workshops, which were hosted in the first quarter of 2019.
