"It is incredibly positive to see a fresh new entrant coming into the protection space, particularly one that has clearly challenged some of the traditional ways of doing things."
- Emma Vaughan - Omni Protect
Omni Protect and Beagle Street have announced a new partnership, with the former becoming the first service provider for directly authorised UK firms to offer the provider's newly launched intermediary proposition to advisers.
The partnership comes after Beagle Street’s entry into the intermediary market last month, which included life insurance and critical illness cover, with all products supported by added-value services.
Omni Protect firms will gain access to Beagle Street's protection offering, increasing the solutions available to them.
"We are delighted to be the first service provider to bring Beagle Street's intermediary proposition to market," Emma Vaughan, managing director of Omni Protect, said.
"It is incredibly positive to see a fresh new entrant coming into the protection space, particularly one that has clearly challenged some of the traditional ways of doing things.
"As the protection market continues to evolve, the addition of a new provider brings greater choice and fresh thinking, helping advisers find the right solutions for a wider range of client needs.
"Innovation is essential if we are to continue improving client outcomes and supporting advisers in an increasingly competitive market. Beagle Street has taken a fresh look at the adviser journey and proposition design, and we believe that approach will resonate strongly with our firms.
"We can’t wait to introduce the proposition to the market and help advisers explore the opportunities it creates for their clients and businesses."

"Omni Protect has built a strong reputation for supporting advisers with innovative solutions, high-quality development support and a genuine commitment to improving client outcomes.
"We are excited to work together to bring our proposition to a wider adviser audience and look forward to supporting Omni Protect members in growing their protection businesses."
