The insurer recently completed its strategic transformation programme to rejuvenate its e-traded offering, culminating with the launch of its Packaged Offices and Surgeries product earlier in the year. All products are showing excellent growth and the service level around these products continue to be very strong.

Feedback from our brokers suggests that we have a platform that is genuinely helping them to trade better, with our 30 minute referral commitment being especially welcomed.
