Birmingham and Leeds next stops for Bridgewater forums

The first May forum will be held in Birmingham on Wednesday 25th May at the Park Inn by Radisson Hotel, Birmingham Road, West Midlands, B70 6RS.

The second forum will be held in Leeds on Thursday 26th May at the Village Hotel (South Leeds), Capitol Boulevard West, Tingley, Leeds LS27 0TS.

Both broker forums begin with networking from 10am for a 10.30am start.  The meetings conclude at 12.30pm followed by lunch and finish at 1pm - free parking is available to all attendees.  

Bridgewater’s Broker Forums are designed to provide equity release advisers, and those looking at entering the sector, with an opportunity to discuss a wide range of related issues in an informal setting.

Experienced Bridgewater Equity Release staff chair the meetings and are on hand to offer valuable information and support about a variety of equity release-related topics, particularly on the opportunities within the home reversion market.  All subjects under discussion are determined by the assembled Group.

Places at Bridgewater Broker Forums are strictly limited and those advisers wishing to register or enquire about the event should contact Victoria Barone on 0191-269 5980 or vbarone@graingerplc.co.uk

Peter Welch, Head of Sales and Distribution at Bridgewater Equity Release, commented:

“With the Bank Holiday bonanza over many advisers can anticipate a growing interest in their services as we move through Spring into Summer.  This is also the case for potential equity release clients and it is therefore important that advisers are clued up on recent market developments and changes, plus the latest updates on products, regulation and lead generation.

"The equity release market has been bolstered this year by a number of new provider entrants and it remains a sector which requires up to date knowledge.  Our forums offer both specialist advisers, and those who are considering their entry to the sector, with an opportunity to discuss and debate the latest equity release issues, with a particular emphasis on home reversion plans.

"We at Bridgewater are committed to the advisory market and these forums, along with our recently launched series of monthly sales aids, are designed to help advisers with their own client propositions.  We look forward to seeing the advisory community in both Birmingham and Leeds this month.”
