The reasons protection remains overlooked within financial planning will be debated at Money Marketing Interactive London 2026. The session, titled Protection – Who’s Ignoring Who?, will examine whether advisers are failing to give protection sufficient attention or whether clients are reluctant to engage with conversations about illness, disability and death. Although protection can provide financial security when a client dies or becomes unable to work, it is often treated as a secondary consideration within the advice process. MMI London returns on Tuesday 6 October at etc.venues County Hall in London, with a programme examining the future of financial advice and the forces reshaping the profession. Attendance is free for qualifying financial advice professionals, with CPD accreditation available, so register now.
