The Council’s CEO, Jim Boyd, will be interviewed by AIR chairman Stuart Wilson at the Later Life Lending event in London on January 25. He will be discussing the role of the Council in helping to grow the later life sector. In additions, the Council’s Risk, Policy & Compliance (RPC) director, Kelly Melville-Kelly will chair a panel event with representatives from the Financial Ombudsman Service and the Association of Mortgage Intermediaries.

The Later Life Lending Event is a forum bringing together the key providers of later life lending solutions including high street banks, building societies and specialist equity release providers – and advisers, both those already offering advice in the sector and those keen to get involved.

The event features presentations showcasing the latest thinking in providing lifetime credit options and appropriate and comprehensive advice, along with panel discussions, offering delegates plenty of opportunity to debate and exchange ideas to consider the opportunities and challenges from the consumer, lender and adviser perspectives.
