Intermediaries offered new Abbey National service

The new operation means that, by January 2003, intermediaries will have access to all of Abbey National’s UK intermediary products, services and brands through one straightforward point of contact.

“Abbey National for Intermediaries has been created to unite Scottish Mutual, Scottish Provident, James Hay, Cater Allen Private Bank and Abbey National branded mortgage and general insurance sold through intermediaries,” said Ambrose McGinn, director, sales and marketing at Abbey National for Intermediaries.

“Individually these brands are strong performers but together they present a unique blend of product offerings and services spanning life, investment, banking, mortgage, general insurance, pensions and protection products. We are the ‘one stop shop’ in the world of financial services for intermediaries and we’re just getting started. This is both an exciting and challenging time for us and our intention is to shape the industry and set new standards to help and support intermediaries.”
