Mortgage network Pink is hold a series of UK-wide road shows to help its members protect their businesses against fraud.

The events will also assist members to keep up to date with the quality standards that lenders require.

The free, nationwide seminars start on 17 September. The seminars, aimed specifically at local members, are the next stage in Pink’s ongoing quarterly training and development programme.

This is the third round of roadshows that Pink has run for its network this year which complements its bi-weekly cluster meetings where Pink meets with its members on a more localised level, together with the lender BDMs, to keep people up to date with changes and enable advisers to share best practice in their peer groups.

“We have developed these seminars to help our members to combat fraud and raise their quality of business even higher,” explained Mark Graves, director of Pink network.

“Fraud is a problem that is ever present, but knowing how to deal with it effectively is something that you can’t wait for experience to teach you. We’ve not only asked the experts, we’re bringing them along as we know members benefit greatly from hearing this information directly.

“The quality bar is being raised ever higher, so these seminars will help advisers to understand exactly what they need to do to exceed this and get every mortgage case through. The lenders attending the roadshows with us are as passionate about this as we are and will be on hand to help Pink members and answer any questions they might have.”
