OnePath to upgrade its OneView Life portal
The now Zurich-owned OnePath has announced upgrades to its client management portal OneView Life, as part of its ongoing commitment to its development.
The upgrades included the ability for financial advisers to quote increases online to existing client’s OneCare cover, giving flexibility for changes in client’s circumstances. This complimented OnePath’s existing capability to quote online cover reductions.
Gerard Kerr, OnePath’s head of propositions and group life, said they were investing further in its adviser partnerships to make sure it was easy to do business at every step of the advice proposition.
“To do this, we are continuing to invest in our people, products and technology to create simpler, faster, clearer and sustainable solutions for advisers and their clients,” Kerr said.
“This investment is generating a long-term program of initiatives with the release over the coming months of new tools for advisers and their clients.”
Further initiatives were planned to give clients greater clarity and confidence with their cover, to reinforce the benefits of insurance and reward them for choosing OnePath Life.
A 10 per cent premium ‘kickstart discount’, which was then reduced 2.5 per cent each year, for new OneCare and OneCare Super Lump Sum policies in the first year were now available.
That discount would apply to life cover, any linked total and permanent disability (TPD), and/or trauma covers with stepped premiums.
