Guardian and Zurich team on 'Life Navigator' money tool

Editorial

This content has been selected, created and edited by the Finextra editorial team based upon its relevance and interest to our community.

The app lets users select up to three 'life stages', such as 'I'm buying a house', 'I'm about to retire' and 'my income has significantly decreased' before serving up relevant infographs, videos, Guardian articles and Zurich advertorials.

The app - currently occupying a prominent position on the paper's homepage - is part of a six month campaign, which will sit on the Guardian site's Money section, to "raise awareness of the biggest financial considerations people face at key life stages".

In a note on the campaign, Guardian Money site editor Hilary Osborne says that Zurich has provided part-funding for new features "but all editorial is independent of the sponsor, except for those articles labelled 'advertisement feature'."

Mia Barnes, group head, brand partnerships, Guardian News & Media, says: "This is a wonderfully visual and emotive campaign, which focuses on providing readers with useful and relevant financial information in a fun, engaging, and at times, poignant way."

James Hill, head, marketing, UK Life business, Zurich, adds: "We hope that the interactive nature of the campaign, the range of media we're using - and some hard hitting messages - will capture peoples' interest, and show how they can put plans in place to cover the potential financial impacts of the unforeseen events that could happen to any of us."
