Paymentshield has added LV= Broker to its home insurance panel.

The panel already includes AXA, Legal & General, RSA, Geo Underwriting, UK General and Zurich.

LV= Broker is part of LV= General Insurance, the third largest personal lines insurer in the UK.

James Loder (pictured), proposition director at Paymentshield, said: “This summer Paymentshield delivered our new Adviser Hub, an online Defaqto Compare Tool and our new Quick Quote functionality. We’re a business that doesn’t believe in standing still and we are continually looking to improve our proposition for advisers, making it easier for them to ensure their clients have the right general insurance cover for their individual needs.

“The addition of LV= to our panel has been a seamless transition and we are looking forward to a long and successful partnership.”

Michael Lawrence, director of personal lines for LV= Broker, added: “Paymentshield has a very well-respected panel of general insurance providers and we’re delighted to now be a part of that.

“Like Paymentshield, we recognise the importance of providing excellent customer service and quality products and we’re looking forward to working with them to help deliver good customer outcomes as well as growth across both our businesses.”
