Growing your protection business in a challenging market

With interest rates rising and inflation still high, the protection market continues to face a raft of economic headwinds during the cost of living crisis. With Consumer Duty now upon us, there is more emphasis than ever on meeting client needs, delivering fair value and avoiding foreseeable harm.

This has put protection in the spotlight at a time when client budgets are squeezed and persistency is under pressure. In this live webinar, we’ll explore how protection advisers can maximise the opportunities available on the market to ensure their businesses thrive in an ever-challenging climate.

Panel: Matthew Chapman - Plus Protect and The Protection Coach;
Charlotte Nixon - Mortgage and Protection Proposition Director, Quilter Financial Planning;
Gary King - Head of Protection Specialists, Vitality

Chair: Rob Harvey, Adviser Editor, Vitality

Meeting the needs of PMI clients in a volatile market

With demand for health insurance increasing, it's crucial that insurers innovate to meet the changing needs of customers, and deliver care sustainably. To meet the changing needs of clients, health insurance has needed to adapt to support people through everyday care, earlier intervention and by prioritising prevention to achieve better health outcomes.

In this live webinar, we’ll gather the PMI industry’s leading thinkers to debate what’s next for the health insurance market as we enter an inflection point and how this will impact the important role both providers and intermediaries have to play.

Panel: Ian Sawyer - Commercial Director, Howden Life and Health;
Claire Ginnelly - Vice Chairperson of the Association of Medical Insurers and Intermediaries, AMII;
Athos Rushovich - Specialist Health Sales and Vitality Adviser, Vitality

Chair: Adam Saville, Chief Editor, Vitality

Supporting staff wellbeing in an ever-changing workplace

With some employers opting to either bring all staff back to the office and others working entirely remotely, it’s clear organisations in the UK are still adjusting to modern ways of working. While the topic of the future of work is hotly debated, at times overlooked is the impact of human connection on employees from a workplace wellbeing perspective, at a time when UK productivity levels are declining and 9.1 million people are projected to be living with major illness by 20401.

In this live webinar, we’ll invite thought-leaders and experts in the employer space to dig into how social connections influence employee health and the increasingly important role organisations have to play in cultivating healthy workplaces.
