Your Annuity One-Stop Shop

With the pool of annuity providers in the market reducing over the last year and some leading providers restricting to whom they will provide quotations, it has become harder than ever for IFAs who are seeking the highest competitive guaranteed instant quotes - especially for enhanced annuities which account for the majority of annuities sold.

Frustrating enhanced quotation processes

Standard conventional and fixed term annuity quotes can be easily accessed by IFA’s using various portals but it is more difficult to obtain the most competitive enhanced quotes through these portals, especially on guaranteed terms.

In order to get an enhanced quote, the providers require you to complete and send them a CQF (an ill-health form) specifying your clients’ medical conditions and/or lifestyle issues. This will normally be manually underwritten and quotes can then take the providers’ standard turn-around time to reach you - from a couple of days to as long as 2 weeks. By the time the last quote arrives, the first quotes from the faster response providers may be out of date! Some portals only give the option of entering basic medical information, this may result in you receiving impersonal indicative quotes. Worse still, your client could be missing out on higher income by not being able to send all the relevant medical information.

It can be a frustrating and potentially lengthy process.

All of this means the enhanced quotations that are received by the IFA may not be as competitive as they otherwise could be.
