The types of financial products | can give advice on are:
What else I can help you with
I can help you with other services through my referral partners to make it easier for you. However I am not able to give advice on the products they offer and I have not checked to see if they can meet your specific needs. You are free to use other providers of vour choice or undertake your own research.
I am unable to offer legal or tax advice and recommend that you consult your solicitor or accountant for this type of advice.
Fees and expenses
Generally, you won’t be charged any fees for the financial advice I provide to you. This is possible because, on settlement of a loan, the lender usually pays commission to me, which is explained in the commission section of this Disclosure Guide. Any exceptions to this general position are explained below. If these exceptions apply to you, I will let you know.
One-off fees
I may charge you a one-off fee if the following occurs:
[a] There’s no commission: If you request that I provide financial advice and I do not receive a commission from the lender, I may charge you a one-off fee. Any such fee would be agreed and authorised by you in writing before I complete the services, and would be based on an estimate of the time spent providing the advice.
This may arise in the rare event that you request that I provide services in relation to either a product that is offered by a lender for which I do not hold an accreditation, or a product that is outside my usual arrangements with my approved lenders.
[b] Commission has to be repaid: If you make certain changes to your loan, the lender can require me to repay them the commission I received for your loan – this is called a ‘clawback’ and can be up to 100% of the commission. If this occurs. I may charge you a one-off fee. Set out below are the circumstances in which this would apply and the fee that would be charged to you.
You will be invoiced for any one-off fee and will be given 30 days to make payment.
Adviser fee
Some lenders charge a fee which is capitalised for added] to the amount of your loan. This fee is normally calculated as a percentage of your loan at drawdown, but can be a flat fee. Please see tables 1 & 2 at the back of the guide for further information.
Commissions & incentives
Commissions & incentives that apply to me:
On the settlement of a loan, the lender usually provides me with a commission payment.
The commission is generally an upfront commission payment, but an ongoing commission payment may also be paid by the lender. The upfront commission is calculated as a percentage of the loan at drawdown.
An ongoing commission is calculated as a percentage of the loan outstanding at the relevant time.
I may also receive a fixed-rate rollover fee from the lender if I assist in refixing your loan.
The maximum percentage that each lender uses to calculate upfront and ongoing commissions, and the maximum fixed rate rollover fees (refix fees), are set out in Table 3 at the back of this guide. If there are any variations to these percentages or other commission payments that may apply, specific to your loan application, I will disclose this to you as part of my advice process.
I may also receive a referral fee or commission payment if I refer you to our referral partners.
Commission payments or referral fees can be paid in different ways:
- Paid in full to a financial adviser.
- Shared between two or more financial advisers.
- Paid to an employer who then pays a financial adviser a salary.
- Paid in full to a financial adviser’s company, from which the financial adviser takes drawings or profit share.
- Shared with a licence holder to cover the costs of the services they provide.
I can provide you with more information to explain which option applies to me.
Occasionally | may receive incentives or rewards from lenders or referral partners. For example, lenders may provide us with gifts, tickets to events or other incentives.
I manage the conflicts of interest arising from these commission payments, referral fees or incentives by:
- Following an advice process that ensures I understand your needs and goals so that I always recommend the best loan for you regardless of the type and amount of commission or other payments
I may receive. - Ensuring the amount of any loan is in accordance with your identified needs.
- Providing you with tables showing commission rates and types by lender.
- Undertaking regular training on how to manage conflicts of interest.
