Steve Fiorelli, senior vice president of wealth solutions at Canada Life, said that nesto’s track record as a tech-powered platform was a major factor in their consenting to the agreement.
“We wanted to ensure that our mortgage customers have a best-in-class partner passionate about offering great service for one of their most important investments,” Fiorelli said.
“With the move to nesto, our customers will receive a modern, digital customer experience and will also continue to receive wealth and insurance advice from their current advisor.”
