Air, the later life lending platform, has extended its partnership with Canada Life for a further three years as part of its Ambassador programme.

Air and Canada Life have a shared vision to develop the later life lending market through Air’s Comprehensive Conversations campaign and manifesto, placing affordability, triage and referral at the heart of the advice journey for the over 50s.

Canada Life will support Air’s later life lending learning platform, Air Academy. It will provide retirement planning courses and wider educational content to help enhance adviser knowledge and aid continuous professional development in the sector.

Mike Taylor (pictured), managing director at Air, said: “We’re excited to continue our great work with Canada Life and pleased to see the partnership through our Ambassador programme extend for a further three years.

“Forging collaborative working relationships and strategic partnerships such as this will go a long way to supporting advisers and equipping them with the kinds of expertise they need to support customers.

“Together, we can help to shape the future of the later life lending market to ensure it continues to meet borrower desires and good customer outcomes.”

Sadna Zaman, proposition development manager at Canada Life, added: “Our continued partnership with Air allows us to amplify our shared mission of supporting advisers and make a significant impact on consumer outcomes.

“Together, we are pushing the boundaries in the later life lending market, and we see the CPD content available via Air, as a key driver in achieving this.”
