OnePath enhances OneCare
ANZ has announced changes to its OnePath OneCare offering which it says will make it more efficient and faster for advisers.
ANZ's head of Life Insurance, Gerard Kerr said that as part of the enhancements, the banking group had introduced an underwriting engine that had allowed it to cut the application process down by up to half the normal time, while still maintaining high assessment standards.
"For example, by categorising questions in a more intuitive way, we've been able to deliver an application process that is more user friendly, simpler and faster," Kerr said.
He said the changes had been based directly on adviser feedback.
