Two-thirds of intermediaries think IFA firm LifeSearch's decision to team up with Asda to sell protection will make consumers more aware of the need for advice, COVER's latest web poll unveiled.
According to the online survey, 63.6% of respondents believed the protection specialist's move would help raise awareness among consumers about the importance of advice.
