TrigoldCrystal has been selected as the exclusive provider of mortgage data to Legal and General’s website.

The new feature on the mortgage pages of the Legal & General website is designed to to help consumers research mortgages online before being passed to a Legal & General broker for an advised sale.

Legal & General has built its own interface for the service which uses TrigoldCrystal technology at the back end to run the searches and deliver the data.

The TrigoldCrystal Research Service is currently running over 200,000 searches per month to power adviser websites, corporate websites, and the TrigoldCrystal iPhone application.

Simon Maskell, technology director at Legal & General Network, said: “This is a very exciting project for us. Consumers are increasingly looking online for product information prior to seeking advice and this new feature helps them get what they want.
