"This alliance is a major development for us and will be of immense benefit to our members, many of whom are keen to offer their clients a comprehensive range of financial solutions," said Steve Hoare, managing director of HLP. "Pure Protection is an organisation that has a good reputation in the market and we are delighted to have them on board."
Steve Loe, spokesperson for Pure Protection, said: "Part of our ongoing commitment to HLP is to continually review and update our procedures and improve the technology we use. This commitment enables us to constantly improve our overall levels of service ñ something we know is important to mortgage professionals as it impacts directly on their customers. This approach has proven to be successful with other business partners. WeÃre confident that it will be successful for HLP too."
