More than 100 brokers have applied for MMA agencies following the launch of its strategic partnership with the Misys Countrywide network, said the software company.

Misys Insurance Management head of insurance services, John Dawson, said: "The fact that we have received so many applications in just a few weeks suggests a very positive outlook for future trading with MMA.

"I am confident that our members recognise MMA's commitment to the broker market and will work with us to achieve results."

The feedback from brokers on MMA's new mid net worth product, MMA Lifestyle, had been positive, added Dawson. The product is currently only available on full cycle EDI with Misys.
