A small group of businesses have agreed to take part in a pilot of the white-label service, which is designed to support advisers that want to offer a digital investment advice process to some of their clients.
Advisers using the technology continue to own the advice relationship and must set an appropriate advice fee, which is disclosed to the customer as part of the advice process.
Old Mutual Wealth customer director, Carlton Hood, said:
“At Old Mutual Wealth we are committed to extending the footprint of financial advice. Helping advisers to reach new customers through digital channel is an obvious place for us to explore.
“We will continue to develop the proposition along with a small number of advisers with a view to making the service more widely available in 2016, subject to demand.”
