iPensions Group has launched an adviser portal to enable adivsers to compelte the SIPP application online.

 The Adviser Portal enables advisers to compelte the SIPP application process within minutes in contrast to days or weeks with paper-based applications.

The dedicated portal was designed to save time on administration and provide round-the-clock access to client information and applications, with the launch being supported by a dedicated team to onboard advisers for portal registration.

The iPensions Group said the launch of the portal builds on over three years of investment by the group in developing an end-to-end pension management solution using technology. 

Further developments are expected to be released in early 2021.

Hrishi Kulkarni, chief technology officer at iPensions Group, said: “The Adviser Portal launch is a major step forward for iPensions Group and it underpins the importance of technology investment and improving our relationship with the advisers.

“We have exciting plans for technology enhancements in 2021 and beyond. We plan to offer many useful features to improve service experience for members and advisers through this secure digital Portal.

“The timing of the Adviser Portal launch is perfect, with everyone working from home and performing most tasks online. Simplified online application process with the adoption of electronic signatures, electronic ID checks (where available), application tracking, access to investment valuations and transactions at a click of a button with other features will provide an advantage for the advisers working with us.

“Our aim is to offer simplified secure technology solutions that will come with improvements over time."
