The event was hosted on Friday 18 October at London’s Sheraton Grand Hotel and brought together leaders from across the UK protection industry, to recognise the hard work of the market’s most innovative advisers, providers and distributors.

Sesame was recognised for our collaboration with Smartr365 to drive enhancements to the platform’s protection journey, which not only makes it easier for Sesame advisers to write protection, but all Smartr365 users.  

This, along with the launch of our COR Support Reviewer service to personalise your file review experience, our Protection Helpdesk, and our ongoing commitment to fair value for your customers, secured Sesame the title of Best Network. 

Continuing to deliver on protection 

We submitted our Protection Guru award entry back in May. Since then of course, we’ve expanded the resources and support available for Sesame members even further. 

In July, we launched our all-new protection offering, so now you can choose whether to write single-tie through Solo, to write with a shortened panel through Flex, or continue to access all Sesame’s provider partners through Zenith.

We also published our Go For Green Hub, bringing all the tools, guidance and resources you need to write and refer quality protection business into one place. Since it launched, the hub ranks in the top 15 most visited pages on my Sesame, with almost 600 members having accessed it. 

Protection remains a key focus for us here at Sesame, and we’ll continue working to boost the support available, and make it easier for you to protect more customers. 

Thank you 

This award is a testament to the hard work and dedication of you, our members.  

With the advent of Consumer Duty, you’ve embraced protection, increasing your conversations with customers and empowering them to make informed financial decisions, so they can achieve the best possible outcomes. 

Looking to the future, we’ll continue working to become your proactive partner for life, supporting you in those conversations throughout the remainder of 2024 and beyond. 

In the meantime, this award shows that Sesame members are already leading the market and delivering for your customers.

So from all of us here at Sesame: thank you. We couldn’t have done it without you.
