BDS teams up with debt management specialist

BDS Mortgage Group has teamed up with Guardian Debt Management to offer credit management solutions to its appointed representatives (ARs).

Both firms are to host free presentations and training days for ARs who wish to expand their business into the debt management sector.

Guardian offers a range of credit management services, including debt management, involuntary arrangements, full and final settlements and sale and rent back schemes.

Training sessions will help ARs to identify solutions for clients, as well as full training in Guardian’s instant decision system, Casemaster.

ARs will be required to attend training sessions prior to gaining authority to offer Guardian’s products and services.

Commenting on the partnership, Bob Hope, sales and marketing director at BDS, says: “There is no doubt that demand for debt management solutions is on the up and many of our ARs view this link with Guardian as an excellent income earning opportunity at a time when they are looking to diversify their service offering.”

Guardian’s chairman, Gary Forrest, says rising mortgage rates have led to some consumers struggling to meet loan repayments and many are in need of professional assistance.

“These people need accurate advice and access to a wide range of options in order to best resolve their circumstances and, at Guardian, we firmly believe that the mortgage broker is best placed to assist the client in these situations,” he explains.
