The deals reinforce Sesame’s mortgage and general insurance proposition, enabling advisers to place business with a wide range of insurers, in addition to the options already available through Sesame General Insurance Services.
Following this agreement, advisers with existing Paymentshield and CETA business relationships will also benefit from a smooth transition to the new regulated environment.
Sesame will be delivering further efficiency gains for advisers by linking the quotation applications of Paymentshield and CETA into its adviser desktop, along with a number of mortgage-sourcing tools.
Martin Davis, Sesame Commercial Director says:
"These agreements deliver the choice advisers are looking for and will form a key element in the comprehensive service we are rolling-out to intermediaries ahead of industry regulation. Paymentshield and CETA have developed very efficient business submission processes and offer a range of products that are particularly well suited to the mortgage market. We will also be delivering an integrated solution that minimises re-keying and enables multiple product sales to be conducted efficiently, helping advisers to grow the value of their businesses and prosper in the regulated environment. Our proposition goes from strength to strength and we expect to announce further similar agreements in the near future".
Graham Boulger, Paymentshield Managing Director comments:
"We are delighted to support the Sesame mortgage proposition with our general insurance products and we look forward to working closely with Sesame to help increase members’ mortgage insurance sales and add value to their businesses."
David Quick, CETA Managing Director says:
"CETA are delighted to be associated with Sesame and their general insurance initiative. At CETA we offer 19 household products as well as a range of non-standard policies and agree with Sesame’s approach that choice and flexibility are the only way forward."
