Openwork agrees deal with Criteria Hub

Published on

Criteria Hub has signed an agreement with Openwork, to provide the network’s advisers with access to its platform.

Openwork, which was founded in 2005, and has recently announced its separation from Zurich, has over 3600 advisers and is one of the largest networks in the UK. Openwork advisers will now be able to gain full access to Criteria Hub’s platform, which will allow them to interrogate the Criteria Hub database on all kinds of specific criteria questions.

Jason Hegarty, Criteria Hub director, said: “We are delighted to team up with one of the UK’s most successful networks. Openwork advisers have been trialling our platform over the last few months and their positive feedback had led to the adoption of the Criteria Hub system for all advisers who want to have access to our platform. The mortgage broker’s job is increasingly more complex and researching specific criteria from multiple lenders can be time consuming unless the answers are in one place.

“We provide the kind of accurate fine criteria detail thatadvisers need to save them time, as well as providing evidence of the research undertaken to back up final recommendations.”

David Booth, mortgage proposition manager at Openwork, said: “Criteria Hub is a great tool for our advisers and solves the problem of checking multiple lender policy pages, and having to call lender business development managers and sales lines in order to get the answers they need when placing mortgage cases.  We’ve been piloting with Criteria Hub for the last few months it’s been well received.

“The data set is comprehensive and because it’s been built by brokers, it’s easy to use and will really save our advisers time.”
