The new product was already soft-launched this month and is available for new business but will be fully launched in September.
It will be a simple retirement product and offer a bank account and the choice of one DFM from a panel of DFM providers.
Oliver Bowler, business development consultant at Talbot & Muir, said the firm was working to establish relationships with DFM providers.
He said there were four providers in the pipeline which were currently going through due diligence.
It is anticipated there will be five or six DFMs by the launch and then 10 firms by the end of the year.
