Standard Life Home Finance has entered into a strategic later life partnership with Sesame Bankhall Group (SBG).
Sesame’s adviser network and PMS Mortgage Club’s directly authorised brokers can now register on Standard Life Home Finance’s online portal to gain access to its complete range of Defaqto 5 Star rated products.
These products include a variety of LTVs, as well as both drawdown and lump sum options.
Standard Life Home Finance products will be available to PMS members via Later Life Lending Solutions (in partnership with Key Group).
Kay Westgarth, head of sales at Standard Life Home Finance, said: “Increasingly we are seeing more people interested in releasing equity from their home as part of their retirement plan. By providing access to a range of products, tools and support services, we know we can help more people to make the best choices for their individual circumstances.
“The role of the adviser is a vital one during this process, so strong relationships with adviser networks, brokers and support services are an important way we can help customers on this journey. Given this, it’s exciting to work with Sesame Bankhall Group as they firmly believe in helping advisers to not only better serve customers but also improve their own skills and understanding of the market. This ethos is very close to our own and we are pleased to be working closely with them.”
Stephanie Charman (pictured), strategic relationships director at Sesame Bankhall Group, added: “With the later life lending market going from strength to strength, we are delighted to sign a strategic agreement with Standard Life Home Finance. Sesame Bankhall Group is focused on providing its members with market-leading support, better access to products and more options to support their customers.
”This new partnership is another important step in helping us to deliver on this ambition and we look forward to working with the Standard Life Home Finance team.”
