Yellow Brick Road and Suncorp announce new insurance agreement
Yellow Brick Road Group (YBR) and Suncorp have announced an agreement that will see YBR clients offered Suncorp’s Vero general insurance products.
YBR and Vow Financial clients would be able to access both a range of insurance products and customer service assistance with claims from Vero.
They could also select their insurance products at the same time as organising a home or vehicle loan, regardless of whether that loan is from Suncorp.
Mark Bouris, YBR executive chairman said that the partnership would ensure that the company’s lending and wealth clients get the best insurance protection.
Suncorp also welcomed the partnership, with Pip Marlow, the insurer’s chief executive customer marketplace, saying that there was a natural fit between the two companies.
The agreement strengthened YBR’s existing relationship with Suncorp, which already included access to the bank’s lending services.
