UnderwriteMe said women were also more likely to cite cost as a barrier, with 34% saying life insurance is too expensive compared to 30% of men.

The new tool, AI Engine for Post-Issue Audits, aims to help insurers expand audit coverage without increasing underwriting resource.

The addition means advisers using the platform can now access Guardian’s income protection product alongside the insurer’s wider protection suite.

The platform recorded 739 disclosures of weight-loss treatment use in the past 12 months, reflecting wider national trends.

The move means advisers can now access Vitality’s full Serious Illness Cover range – SIC 1X, SIC 2X and SIC 3X – alongside its life cover and income protection products already available on the platform.

Research found an average of 1.16 disclosures per customer, showing many applicants disclosed existing health or lifestyle conditions that required extra checks.

Doran joins from Pacific Life Re where he was the global chief underwriting officer.

This collaboration is set to provide brokers with a more comprehensive set of tools to support their clients and drive business growth.

As part of this move, the new platform will now be integrated into TMN’s CRM provider, One Mortgage System (OMS).

This partnership aims to save advisers time and effort by providing one application form that’s consistent for all the insurers on the platform.

This integration was designed to help brokers streamline their advising process, reduce data entry, speed up the process, and ensure compliance.
