SmartApp to replace paperwork
Life insurance research and software business PlanTech has launched a software package which it says will replace paper-based systems used to process proposals and applications for life offices.
SmartApp, as the new system is named, aims to streamline the process of advisers sending applications through to life offices.
It is designed to be used alongside PlanTech's ProPlanner software with the full range of life insurance products, including term life, income protection and trauma products.
