"At Legal & General, equipping advisers with the very best in mortgage technology is our most important goal."
- Jodie White, Legal & General Technology
Norton Broker Services has partnered with mortgage research and product sourcing platform, Legal & General Ignite.
L&G Ignite is expanding its offering to ensure advisers can deliver personalised outcomes for clients with specialist requirements.
Advisers who use Legal & General Ignite can now search for results from Norton's range of products, along with real-time updates to criteria and pricing. Advisers can also access regulatory support through the platform, as it gives users the ability to produce and save compliance documents, including the European Standardised Information Sheet (ESIS) and Evidence of Research, to ensure they are meeting industry standards.
Founded in 1974, Norton Broker Services provides secured loans with no maximum LTVs. In addition, Norton Broker Services also offers a wide range of other specialist products, including unsecured loans, mortgages, commercial mortgages and bridging.
Legal & General Ignite brings together borrower criteria, an integrated affordability calculator, product sourcing and property checking tools. It is available free of charge to Legal & General Mortgage Club members.
Paul Stringer, director at Norton Finance, commented: “Legal & General Ignite is a fantastic tool that makes it easy for advisers to source a tailored and suitable solution for their clients. Norton began as a family business, and almost 50 years on, we still believe in the priceless value of a personal touch. With Ignite, our advisers will be able to provide a top-notch personalised customer experience, and we are delighted to watch our partnership with Legal & General evolve in time.”
