Keychoice Insurance has signed a deal with RAC to offer motor breakdown as a policy addition.

From early next year, brokers who are Keychoice members will have access to a fully integrated breakdown recovery scheme for cars, vans and motorbikes. Keychoice members will benefit from an exclusive discounted net rate.

The scheme enables Keychoice members to provide cover for vehicle breakdowns that occur at the driver's home, anywhere in the UK and in 48 countries across continental Europe. Other features include recovery of the vehicle to a single destination anywhere in the UK and onward travel if the vehicle cannot be repaired at the roadside.

Liz Mitchell, general manager, Keychoice said: "Our partnership with the RAC is part of an exciting new chapter in how we work with our members. We have strengthened our team and revitalised the Keychoice proposition in preparation for the next phase of growth and evolution, and this is the first of many new exciting products to come."

Richard Fuller, head of commercial sales at the RAC said: "Brokers are becoming an important part of the RAC's income stream, as we look to expand our products and revenue.

"SSP is a trusted strategic partner with access to hundreds of brokers through its Keychoice distribution business. We wouldn't otherwise be able to connect with these brokers on an individual basis, so this partnership with Keychoice is really important to us."
