Legal & General Home Finance announced a new strategy last year to encourage more mortgage brokers to enter the retirement lending market and advise their clients on later life lending solutions. As part of the strategy the retirement lender wants to support and guide intermediaries who are thinking about entering the later life lending sector, using education, tools and workshops to help them take their first step.

Marie Catch, Head of Mortgage Broker Sales, Legal & General Home Finance: "...we’re delighted to announce that we’ll be offering even more of our CII-led equity release workshops. Borrowing in retirement is becoming more popular amongst over-55s. To continue growing the later life lending market and meeting the needs of homeowners, we need to get more mortgage brokers ‘on board’ and including property wealth as part of everyday retirement planning."
