In terms of the March 2005 partnership, Asgard has provided dealer services and platform support to IRIS’ network of 30 planners, as well a range of premium advice services.
Asgard chief executive Geoff Lloyd described the “milestone achievement as an illustration of Asgard’s dealer to dealer capability and partnership approach”.
