Avelo has launched a dedicated G-day Focus Centre on its Exchange Portal to help advisers understand changes to providers' products being planned in response to the Gender Directive.
The Focus Centre is conceived as a one-stop-shop for advisers looking to guide clients on pricing changes and other implications of G-day on annuities and protection products.
The information hub can be accessed directly via the Exchange Portal's home page and enables users to:
- gain access to up to the minute G-day news updates in one centralised place
- compare gender specific or gender neutral prices across the full range of providers and alert them to switching dates (planned throughout November and right up to 21st December)
- link directly to relevant information on provider extranets, saving significant time on searching for information
Paul Yates, Strategy and Product Development Director Avelo, said: "Given the monumental effort that most advisers are currently undertaking to ensure they are RDR compliant, there's a real risk that significant G-day changes to annuities and protection will go under the radar.
"Avelo's Focus Centre aims to help improve the situation by providing a comprehensive, up to the minute précis of news and pricing information direct to advisers during the run up to the implementation of the Gender Directive."
