Skandia joins Paradigm

Paradigm’s preferred protection panel is open to all UK advisers who will now have access to Skandia’s flexible solutions to meet a client’s specific protection needs.

Skandia UK offers two protection products which can provide both personal and business cover. They are:

• Skandia Protect – a flexible protection plan offering life cover, critical illness cover or a combination of both. It is available for both fixed terms, and to last throughout life. Each plan can include one or more policies, and each policy has a comprehensive range of increase options and additional benefits, allowing clients to tailor the insurance.

• Skandia Plan – a unit-linked whole life insurance policy, which provides the protection of a cash lump sum, and combines life cover and an investment element.

Skandia’s protection products can be tailored to meet the needs of the client today and in the future. The level of cover can be changed as circumstances change and the client decides on the length of the cover be that a specific term or whole of life.

On top of protection Paradigm Mortgage Services also offers its members access to a range of support services including: packaging, compliance, conveyancing, commercial lending, bridging loans, general insurance, secured loans, sourcing and back-office systems.
