The seminar will be held on Thursday 12 October at the Holiday Inn in Taunton between 5:30pm and 8pm.
The idea behind the seminar is for advisers to be able to learn about the latest developments in the equity release market and to share their own knowledge. There will also be talks on how advisers can continue to build and develop a successful equity release business.
- Clive Martin of Ferret Information Systems will talk on the impact of equity release products on Welfare Benefit Entitlements.
- Peter Barton, a partner at Ashfords Associates will help attendees to understand the role of a solicitor in advising their clients on equity release.
- Chris MacMahon, senior relationship manager at Retirement Plus will provide his tips for marketing an equity release proposition.
Duncan Young, managing director at Retirement Plus, said: “It is very difficult for advisers to keep track of every change in the equity release market. We are hoping that the seminar will help to bring advisers up to speed and plan for the future of their businesses. If this is a success it could be the first of many.”
