PRESS RELEASE 1 APRIL 2023
The Unisure Group announces their partnership with Scottish Friendly
London, United Kingdom – The Unisure Group has announced a new partnership with Scottish Friendly as their Insurer for the Unisure UK Group Life product, in conjunction with the Group’s existing reinsurer, Allianz.
The partnership, which came into effect on 1 April 2023, will see Unisure working with one of the largest life offices in the UK.
“We’re looking forward to a great year of business,” says Dr Graham Woolford, Unisure Group Chairman. “Scottish Friendly’s business ethos aligns very well with ours, and they’ve grown significantly over the last few years. The fact that we boast a strong UK front, as well as a partnership with a company that is renowned for their rigorous due diligence, bodes well for increased broker confidence in our fast-growing brand.”
Unisure’s UK Group Life Underwriter, Lewis Twist, reiterates this confidence, and assures clients, brokers and stakeholders that it’s business as usual in Unisure’s offices as this new partnership takes effect.
“We’d like to take this opportunity to assure all of our valued clients and brokers that they will not experience any changes to their regular points of contact, their underlying rates, the policy Terms and Conditions, and any admin processes. We’re ready to kick-start 2023 and we’re looking forward to continuing to deliver our world-class service and products.”
At a time when more than one in five (22%) customers are considering cancelling their monthly payments because of the cost-of-living crisis, according to a recent Scottish Friendly study of 1,000 respondents aged 50+, Unisure’s UK Group Life division is as passionate as ever about employee benefits.
Alexander Manas, Scottish Friendly’s Commercial Director, reiterates the drive to provide solutions in the face of the many financial challenges that UK employees and households face: “We’re firmly focused on helping to support as many individuals and their families as possible through the difficult challenges we continue to experience here in the UK. This partnership will help to promote to colleagues through their employer, the importance of having adequate protection in place to insure against the unexpected happening.”
The Unisure Group looks forward to collaborating with UK companies that are ready to upgrade and invest in world-class employer-driven financial protection solutions.
