LV= has successfully integrated with Origo Dashboard Connector and is now connected to the pensions dashboard ecosystem.
Having completed its connection ahead of schedule, the life and pensions mutual insurer will be able to respond to data and valuation requests from customers.
Anthony Rafferty, CEO of Origo, said: “It’s fantastic to see momentum growing around pensions dashboards, as our industry moves closer to making life so much easier for everyone out there with a pension.
“A huge amount of effort has gone in so far across the sector and it has been a pleasure to work closely with such a well-known brand as LV= to get the job done ahead of the PDP deadlines. We feel more confident than ever that the dashboard will be a great success and we will support LV= to make the connection process as smooth as possible.”
Sarah Hills, wealth proposition director at LV=, said the ability for pension savers to access all their pension information in just a few clicks is “transformative” in helping people make steps towards improving their financial resilience in retirement.
Hills said: “It’s great to be in a position where we’re fully set for the pensions dashboard. Recent research from our Wealth and Wellbeing Programme revealed that over half of those who have spoken to a financial adviser say it made them feel more knowledgeable about their retirement. By integrating the pensions dashboard, it will make the process easier for advisers and their clients alike.
“Getting to this point is a significant achievement for both LV= and Origo, and as an industry we’re really starting to show what’s possible when working together to benefit consumer needs.”
