First Trust’s financial consultants will sell Legal & General products throughout their branch network on an appointed representative basis, using Legal & General’s RDR model for banks and building societies.
Chris Last, managing director, Legal & General bank & building society distribution, said: “This long term partnership will give First Trust Bank’s customers access to our broad range of competitive, value for money products. Continuing to provide financial advice to banking customers in a post RDR world is an important part of our distribution strategy and we are very pleased that First Trust Bank has selected Legal & General to be its partner.”
Brian Hunter, head of financial services, First Trust Bank said: “Our customers will now benefit from a range of competitive and accessible products combined with first class service.”
