Hence, for funds with similar asset profiles, the Government Actuary would expect the fee levels of ethical funds to be similar to the fee levels of non-ethical funds. However if a global overlay is used, it would be expected that the additional cost necessary for the additional services to be quantified.

Identification involves obtaining from the customer a range of information about him or her (“identity information”). Verification involves confirming some of that information against documents, data or information obtained from a reliable and independent source.

    In our 2019 Life Insurer Conduct and Culture review, we found that “certain products often provided poor value, and consequently poor outcomes for customers, because of limited benefits, and misunderstanding of coverage and eligibility”.
