F4B Network has bolstered its general insurance (GI) offering with the addition of GI provider, Paymentshield, to its panel.
The addition will provide F4B Network members with access to Paymentshield’s GI offering and its Quick Quote solution. Quick Quote was created by Paymentshield within its Adviser Hub platform and provides advisers with an option to integrate a conversation about GI into their sales journey.
F4B Network was launched in February 2021 on the back of demand from intermediary introducers who have previously utilised parent company F4B’s expertise across the specialist lending markets.
The network indicated it is continuing to assemble a wide-ranging lending panel consisting of mainstream, buy-to-let, specialist and short-term finance lenders, as well as an array of protection and GI providers.
F4B Network commercial director, Steve Swyny, commented: “As an industry, we are having to adapt to seismic changes in consumer demand and the value and importance of GI – a product often overlooked in the past – has become increasingly important.
“Advisers are looking to their networks for solutions to meet this growing demand and this relationship will help simplify the GI process and deliver stronger client outcomes in a more timely and effective manner.”
Paymentshield sales director, James Watson, added: “Paymentshield is passionate about growing the GI market and adding value to advisers, which is why we are delighted to partner with F4B. From the get-go, we were really impressed by the commitment of the network and its members to the importance of ensuring the consumer has full protection in place. We look forward to working with Steve and the team to make the most of this partnership.”
