Aviva

Aviva has launched an additional two pension levels on its platform to sit alongside its current self-invested personal pension (SIPP) business.

RDR

Nine in ten advisers say equity release is relevant to their client bank, according to a new research released today.

Providers must be clear about the consumers they want to reach post-Retail Distribution Review (RDR) to bolster their adviser networks, Aviva has said.

Advisers can service the projected hard to reach middle-market post-Retail Distribution Review (RDR) with a good value proposition, according to Aviva.

Aviva has appointed Mark Wilson as its next chief executive.

An IFA who was part of failed network Honister Capital says some providers refused to take his calls when the business went into administration in July, leaving him unable to keep clients informed about their investments.

Aviva's programme of job cuts, which will see 800 staff made redundant, is on track to save the insurer £250m by the end of the year, according to latest results.

The government must do more to promote the benefits of the Retail Distribution Review (RDR) to consumers to help advisers stay in business, Tenet Group has said.

A third of advisers are still not qualified for the Retail Distribution Review (RDR), which comes into force in eight weeks, according to Aviva.
