Online general insurance research tool available to IFAs

Infowise is the latest extension to Defaqto’s online product range, powered by its market leading Aequos database.

Infowise will give The Exchange’s 20,500 intermediary users real-time access to in depth product data, including terms and conditions, for household, motor, travel, creditor protection and commercial insurance policies. The system enables advisers to quickly and easily research product features and analyse this data. Product information can also be printed and used as an aid in meeting regulatory requirements.

“Infowise is the latest online offering from Defaqto and allows an increasingly diverse community access to our research data,” says Mark Hayes–Newington, Defaqto’s group commercial director. “Together with our linking of Aequos to The Exchange’s quote services, this development demonstrates our commitment to forging value added partnerships.”

David Child, managing director of The Exchange, comments: “We are constantly expanding and improving the range of services that are available to intermediaries via Exweb. This launch broadens the depth of our research centre and forms part of our commitment to deliver services that can help advisers research, quote and buy financial products electronically from one place.”
