Aviva has signed an exclusive deal to provide life protection products for Santander in the UK.
The five year deal, which begins in June 2011, will see the insurance firm provide protection products which will be available to Santander customers through its 1,300 branches and over the phone.
The agreement covers the sale of Aviva's core protection products which includes life insurance, critical illness and income protection . In addition, term income protection and guaranteed acceptance whole of life protection will be sold under the dual Aviva Santander brand.
Mark Hodges, chief executive of Aviva's UK business, said: "We aim to provide Santander's customers with a simple, quick and easy way to purchase a range of life protection products according to their specific needs. We know that many UK adults do not have any life insurance cover at all, so making protection choices as simple as possible is really important."
