National Friendly added to Paradigm Protect panel

Paradigm Protect has announced the addition of friendly society, National Friendly, to its panel.

From today, Member firms of Paradigm Protect, which is the directly authorised protection proposition part of Paradigm Mortgage Services, will now have access to National Friendly’s range of medical, life and protection products.

This includes a private medical insurance product, “My PMI”, which has four different levels designed to fit around every client’s needs and budget, varying from level one for quick diagnosis and cover for the most commonly-claimed treatments, up to level four with no overall monetary limits for out or in-patient treatment.

National Friendly’s offering also includes accident only income protection (IP), with products that aim to pay clients a regular benefit if they can’t work because they have had an accident and suffered a loss of earnings as a result.
 
Head of protection at Paradigm, Mike Allison, commented: “As always, it is very encouraging to be bringing on board another provider to our panel, particularly one which comes with such history, experience and quality.

“Our Paradigm Protect firms will, I’m sure, want to explore all the products available through National Friendly and to engage with the provider and their clients to find suitable solutions. At Paradigm Protect we continue to grow our proposition and the providers and products we provide access to.

“We are looking forward to working with the team at National Friendly and to building a long and prosperous relationship for all stakeholders.”

Sales and distribution director at National Friendly, Oliver Jones, added: “We’ve made great efforts to expand our distribution footprint. This new partnership with Paradigm further strengthens our position in the marketplace and we are excited to be working with a service provider of their calibre.

“We’re looking forward to finding ways to innovate within the protection space together.”
