Assurant Intermediary appoints new BDM

Carr has spent 18 years in sales development roles and joins from The Source, where he spent over five years.

Carl Stacey, head of distribution, commented: “David’s experience in the GI market will be extremely valuable in this role and we are therefore very pleased to have him join us. His understanding of the broker market and ability to work with adviser firms to grow their GI business and income streams will be invaluable. We are delighted to welcome him on board.”

David Carr added: “The GI market is set to see plenty of opportunity in 2022 in light of changed regulation and as brokers recognise the necessity to broaden the services they offer to help retain existing customers within their client bank. Assurant is well respected and has a strong reputation and I look forward to taking their proposition to intermediaries throughout my new region.”
