Paradigm’s preferred protection panel is open to all UK advisers who will now have access to the range of AXA products that make up its protection account. These include: life cover, critical illness cover, life or earlier critical illness cover, income protection cover, mortgage income protection cover, accident and sickness cover, unemployment cover, household cover – buildings, and household cover – contents.
Clients are able to tailor the cover to suit their needs and the AXA Protection Account is completely flexible allowing cover to be changed to ensure they continue to meet the client’s needs.
AXA also offers advisers its tele-underwriting service – here an experienced AXA Tele-underwriter will have an in-depth conversation with the adviser’s client to collect medical and lifestyle details on their behalf. This service helps reduce paperwork and the risk of any inherent non-disclosure. In many cases AXA are able to provide a decision at the end of the tele-underwriting call.
Those advisers using AXA will also have access to the protection adviser tool kit which provides brochures, application forms, guides, sales aids and testimonials from customers and other advisers.
