    Review of credit card repayment insurance products

    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”.
    We carried out this additional review to gain a better understanding of the suitability of CCRI for consumers.
    While most providers have withdrawn CCRI products from sale, there are still several hundred thousand existing policies, whose holders may not need or understand the product and are at risk of experiencing poor outcomes if they need to make a claim.

    MIS custody arrangements thematic review 2019

    For any managed investment scheme it’s important that scheme property – money and investments – is kept safe. The function of looking after scheme property is called custody. Under the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 (FMC Act), custody for retail managed investment schemes is the responsibility of the independent licensed supervisor. This separates custody functions from management of the scheme, and provides an additional layer of protection for investors.
