Interlink eSignatures Enable Straight-Through Processing for MetLife Broker-Dealer

On June 3, 2009, MetLife announced the launch of its e-business processing system for its broker-dealer operations. The eApp and eApp with Electronic Signature option, reduces paper and speeds up the application process, making it easier for registered representatives to do business with MetLife.

At the heart of the Electronic Signature functionality is Interlink’s Electronic Signature software: once a handwritten signature is captured with Interlink’s ePad-ink signature capture device, IntegriSign permanently binds the Electronic Signature to the document, creating a secure and tamper-proof form that can be electronically routed through the MetLife Broker-Dealer Group back office.

“MetLife is giving their registered representatives such a competitive advantage,” said Rod Vesling, Senior Vice President for eTransactions at Interlink. “By having access to a 100 percent electronic process, their advisors can not only be more efficient, they can also reduce their costs while providing a more enjoyable experience for their clients.”
