Jelf
The financial planning arm of insurance consultants Jelf Group has reported a small loss for the six months to the end of March, as the company invests in preparing for the Retail Distribution Review (RDR).
Jelf has warned that many of the key recommendations of the Sickness Absence Review are unlikely to ever be realised and called its decision to ignore income protection (IP) as ‘madness’.
Jelf has warned that the private health insurance and employee benefits sector will be “no place for the faint hearted” next year.
