Challenger’s term annuities, Liquid Lifetime range and CarePlus products would be accessible through the portal, along with pre-population features for customer data.

“Making annuities easily accessible for our advisers and customers further strengthens our retirement offer, helping them develop, track and benefit from goals-based investment strategies.”
