You may have noticed an increase in media coverage over recent months regarding financial advisers, more specifically
relating to insurance commissions and a thing called ‘’churn’’.
As with most media coverage these days, the headlines have been pretty sensationalised, which may have left many of you
wondering what on earth the problem with insurance advisers is – especially confusing if you are actually really happy with
your own adviser. Well, we thought it might be useful to give you a look behind those hyped up headlines so you can make
your own mind up about what, if anything, you should be investigating further.
We hope you find the information contained in this edition of Partners Papers to be interesting,
understandable, and comforting and that the next sensationalised media headline you see, can be taken
with a grain of salt.
The idea behind Partners Papers is for the Partners Life team to be able
to talk to you about the workings of life insurance in general, as well as
the philosophies unique to Partners Life. It provides us with a forum to
answer customer questions, address customer concerns and explain why
we do what we do. You will not find us advertising any products directly
to you in Partners Papers. We respect the relationship you have with your
adviser and we understand that the decisions around which products
are best suited to your needs and how much cover you need should
be decided between you and your adviser. Instead we simply want to
bring you up to speed with some of the detail around how life insurance
products work which you may not otherwise be fully aware of, as well as
sharing the stories of some of our clients with you and finally letting you
know the role Partners Life is playing in our New Zealand community.
As each edition of Partners Papers is received by both long-standing
customers as well as brand new customers for whom this edition is their
very first, we would encourage you to check out the previous editions
of Partners Papers on our website, as you may just find we have already
answered your questions in previous articles. Happy reading everyone.
