Key takeaways from the Mactavish Broker Conflicts Report:
- Brokers receive as much as 80% of their remuneration from insurers and just 20% from clients, creating the potential for a huge conflict of interest
- Much of broker remuneration is directly linked to premiums so brokers stand to benefit from the Coronavirus-fueled rise in insurance rates
- These conflicts risk leaving brokers acting as distributors for favoured insurers – often using inappropriate, over-standardised policy terms which have again been exposed by failed Coronavirus related business interruption insurance claims
- Policyholders are advised to run their own competitive tenders amongst brokers as a way of achieving better cover and lower premiums
