Work life balance – Runners at Hove
Legal & General runners from Hove office enjoy a seafront outing. From an informal Monday evening running club a number of attendees have gone on to tackle five and ten kilometre and half marathon races – some have set their sights on the Flora London marathon this year. The Company supports track work at nearby Withdean Stadium to enable practice to continue when nights draw in.
Strategic Distribution Agreement with Nationwide
In February 2007, Legal & General entered a strategic distribution
agreement with Nationwide, Britain’s largest building society. Nationwide
is represented in over 860 locations and has a financial relationship with
one in four households in the UK. Under the agreement, Legal & General
products will be sold through the Nationwide’s 2,000 strong team of
advisers and consultants.
With the Nationwide, Legal & General now has business partnerships
with over twenty retail financial institutions, with a total of around 45
million customers, across the country.
Distribution
One of Legal & General’s great strengths over
recent years has been our multi-channel approach to distribution.
We work closely with a wide range of distribution partners in
the UK including IFAs, employee benefit consultants, stockbrokers,
mortgage brokers, high street banks and building societies.
We provide each with the products and service which meets the unique
needs of their customers. We also deal direct with customers
who want to trade over the phone or, increasingly, online. Our
expertise in balancing the different needs of each of these distribution
channels is one of the reasons why Legal & General
continues to succeed in today’s highly competitive market.
