Beagle Street partners with Iress for intermediary market launch

Beagle Street will go live on Iress's sourcing platform, The Exchange, as the insurer prepares to enter the intermediary market in 2025. 

The move follows Beagle Street’s acquisition by OneFamily in 2023 and will allow users of The Exchange to compare and apply for the full range of Beagle Street’s term assurance and critical illness products.

Iress’s head of business development, Warren O’Connell, said: “We’re delighted that Beagle Street has selected The Exchange to launch its products to the intermediary market. By joining our market-leading sourcing platform, Beagle Street will tap into a significant distribution network of mortgage and protection brokers. The partnership also underpins our commitment to offering our intermediary customers the broadest range of products.”

Beagle Street’s distribution director, Holly Ewing, commented: “We’re pleased to be working with Iress as we move to the next stage of growth in the protection space. We’ve been working hard to build an extremely strong team and are investing in technology, which means we will have an exciting offer when we bring it to market.

“Our priority is to make life easier for advisers, and our partnership with Iress will enable us to put the needs of intermediaries right at the heart of everything we are doing.”
