Entitled ‘At your Service’, the half day conferences run from 9.30am until lunch time and will focus on compliance, mortgages, protection and the potential impact of the European Mortgage Credit Directive and the impact on second charge loans. As the title suggests, the business conferences will also enable TMA, Pink Mortgage Club, providers and lenders to demonstrate how their services can help support DA businesses.
The conferences will take a round table format providing advisers with the opportunity to raise their concerns and discuss them both with other advisers and with lenders and protection product providers. The aim is to provide DA advisers with the opportunity to learn something new and provide them with new tools, valuable contacts and a renewed approach to help them prepare for business both for the end of this year and the beginning of 2015.
The roadshows will take place at the following times and venues:
- Wednesday 5th November York – Fairfield Manor Hotel, Shipton Road, Skelton, York, Y030 1XW
- Tuesday 11th November Midlands – The Arden Hotel, Coventry Road, Bickenhill, Solihull, B92 0EH
- Tuesday 25th November London - Holiday Inn, Barnett By-Pass, London, WD6 5PU
- Wednesday 26th November London - Hilton Cobham, Seven Hills Rd, Cobham, KT11 1EW
David Copland, director of mortgage services for LSL said:
“The business conferences have been organised jointly by TMA and the Pink Mortgage Club to provide DAs with the help and support that they need. It is the first time they have been run since we relaunched TMA.
"TMA’s proposition is now dramatically different with a real focus on adding value to DAs and rewarding loyalty. The conferences come hot on the heels of the announcement of our profit sharing scheme and added value calculator so they will give DAs the opportunity to find out more.
"We will also be looking at the FCA’s response to the European Mortgage Credit Directive and what it means to advisers, with particular attention given to the impact on second charge loans.”
