Legal & General launches enhanced platform for advisers

By: ameer@trustedteam.com

Legal & General is launching a refreshed version of its leading mortgage research and sourcing platform.

The upgraded Legal & General Ignite will deliver a number of new features to advisers and replace the company’s SmartrFit tool.

Legal & General Ignite offers a market comparison service, with access to 130 lenders.

Advisers can also access second charge and bridging lending types, as well as packager, product transfer, and direct product information.

In addition, the platform includes integrated affordability calculators, client criteria, product sourcing and property checking functionality for free, via an all-in-one interface.

Advisers will still be able to download compliance documents including Esis and Evidence of Research.

Legal and General’s head of mortgage products & transformation, Jodie White, described the launch as an ‘exciting step towards our vision of a mortgage market that is fully technologically integrated’.

She adds: “This launch is about combining human expertise with the power of data and technology.

“But I’m hopeful this new platform will go beyond just saving advisers time or improving customer outcomes, to also be a part of how we transform the way the mortgage industry works.”
