Aviva

Simon Badley, director of intermediary at Aviva, says the industry needs to work together to change the client view of financial advice.

Aviva has overcharged 13,000 pension savers an average of £250 following 'error'.

Aviva is introducing additional services and a new escalation rate for its group income protection (GIP) product.

True Potential has agreed a partnership with insurance giant Aviva to allow quotes and online applications for a wider range of the provider's products, including protection plans.

Over half of Britons do not know how to access previous private pension schemes and 60% do not know they can combine pension pots at retirement, Aviva says.

The FTSE had a volatile start to the day's trading as fears over conflict between North and South Korea hit gobal markets.

Almost a quarter of IFAs say they are growing their businesses and have increased profitability compared to just 15% in June.

Protection products will be ‘pivotal' to adviser firms' future prosperity, according to Sesame Bankhall.

Doctors' failure to address awkward health issues and patients' lack of willingness to disclose problems "create a worrying trend that could exacerbate the UK's health issues," Aviva has said.

The implementation of NEST and auto-enrolment in 2012 will drive new business for IFAs in the SME sector, according to Aviva CEO Toby Strauss.
