Why did you rebrand Old Mutual Wealth Life Assurance?

Using the ReAssure brand made it easier to give our customers easy access to the tools and services we provide.

The rebrand was the first step in welcoming Old Mutual Wealth Life Assurance customers to ReAssure. We’re currently in the process of moving policies to our industry-leading administration system. This will bring these customers closer to the service and proposition enjoyed by other ReAssure customers, including our secure online portal ReAssure Now.

Changing the Old Mutual Wealth Life Assurance brand to ReAssure means there are fewer changes for customers as these next steps take place.

What is ReAssure Life Limited?

ReAssure Life Limited is the new name for the legal entity Old Mutual Wealth Life Assurance Ltd (OMWLAL).

You may see it referenced in a few places, for example in company letterhead, but our customer brand will be ReAssure.

Frequently Asked Questions

The sale was completed on 31 December 2019, following a thorough process to ensure customer outcomes were safeguarded and receipt of regulatory approval.

This decision to sell Old Mutual Wealth Life Assurance was not taken lightly and came after a strategic review by the Quilter Board. They concluded that it was in the longer-term best interests of customers that their policies were managed by ReAssure, a company focussed on managing legacy life insurance policies. The sale was subject to regulatory approval to ensure customer outcomes were safeguarded.

Here’s what Quilter had to say about the deal:
We believe ReAssure is an excellent home for Old Mutual Wealth Life Assurance as it’s a well-established, highly regarded company that is committed to delivering excellent customer outcomes and has values similar to our own.

No changes were made to product terms and conditions as a result of the change in brand. Your client’s policy number(s) and any benefits also stayed the same.

No, the rebrand didn’t affect fees or commission. The only change is that payments now come from ReAssure and not Old Mutual Wealth.

Online Customer Centre

Customers who use the Old Mutual Wealth Online Customer Centre can access their policies online using the ReAssure Online Customer Centre. This provides the same information and services that were previously available. Access to this is available through our website at reassure.co.uk.

If you have clients with other policies that remain part of the Old Mutual Wealth platform, they will be able to view them using the existing online services, however they’ll no longer be able to view ReAssure policies alongside them.

Adviser View

Adviser View has been rebranded and will remain available with all of the same functionality. You can access it through this Adviser Hub.

Not much changed as a result of the rebrand, other than you’re now writing to, or speaking with, ReAssure.

There were no changes to products accepting new business due to the rebrand, including top-ups into existing contracts and the ability to add new members to existing Group Personal Pension schemes.

As your clients are now with ReAssure, it’s no longer possible to use Old Mutual Wealth forms. You can find rebranded forms on our adviser literature library page. If you can’t find the right one, please call us on 0808 171 2600 and we’ll do our best to help.

We’re continuing to provide fund information using the same Financial Express service that was previously available. It works in the same way as it did before and you can access it from both the Online support section on this page and the Fund Centre.

There were no changes to fund availability as a result of the rebrand. Investment choices are unaffected and the same fund range is available.

We know that your job has been made harder by having to restrict personal contact with your clients. So, to make things easier for you, we are temporarily relaxing our requirements on certain tasks to accept online instructions if you are unable to follow the usual process.

If this applies to you please get in touch with us at ask@reassurelife.co.uk and we will explain the next steps.
