Legal & General and Police Mutual have agreed a three-year protection partnership.

The arrangement will provide both serving and retired police officers and staff, as well as their families, with Legal & General’s protection products.

The Police Mutual Assurance Association was setup in 1866 by police officers to support the Police Service. Today, around 200,000 officers, staff and their family members trust Police Mutual with their finances, insurance and wellbeing.

The partnership with Legal & General will initially be distributing life insurance, decreasing life insurance and critical illness cover.

The products will be available to purchase either online or over the phone, with a £75 M&S or Amazon voucher as an incentive (offer ends 30 June 2019).

Richard Edwards, director of affinity partnerships & new partnerships, said: “This is a great organisation to be partnering with, and one whose values are completely aligned to those of Legal & General.

“We are all excited about the new partnership and are determined to make it a huge success.”
