The Background

Pursuant to Central Bank (supervision and Enforcement) Act 2013 (Section 48) (Consumer Protection) Regulations 2025 (Section 17A) (Standards for Business) Regulations 2025, all Brokers, must make available in their public offices, or on their website if they have one, a summary of the details of all arrangements for any fee, commission, other reward or remuneration provided to the Broker which it has agreed with its product producers.

What is Commission?

For the purpose of this document, commission is the payment earned by the Broker for work undertaken on behalf of both the provider and the consumer. The amount of commission is generally directly related to the quantity or value of the products sold.

We are remunerated by commission and other payments from product producers. When assessing products, we will consider the different approach taken by product providers in terms of them integrating sustainability risks into their product offering. This will form part of our analysis for choosing a product provider. Our Brokerage commission options are displayed as a range, showing the maximum amount which can be received. The level of commission depends on individual circumstances, based on the following factors: The factors that may impact a variation in charges include;

  • Client segmentation
  • Adviser discretion
  • Competitive pressures
  • Investment/pensions/saving size
  • Schemes size
  • Term/timeline of a policy or service
  • Complexity of advice
Single commision model: where payment is made to the Broker shortly after the sale is completed and is based on a percentage of the premium paid/amount invested/amount borrowed.
Recurring commission model: For Pensions, Savings & Investments recurring commission refers to further payments at intervals that are paid throughout the life span of the product & may be based on a percentage of the value of the fund or the annual premium. For Protection products recurring commissions refers to further payments at intervals that are paid throughout the life span of the product & are based of the annual premium.
Indemnity commission Indemnity commission is the term used to describe a commission payment made before the commission is deemed to be 'earned'. Indemnity commission may be subject to a clawback (see below) if the consumer lapses or cancels the product before the commission is deemed to be earned.

Other forms of indemnity commission are advances of commission for future sales granted to Brokers in order to assist with set up costs or business development.

General Insurance Products

General insurance products, such as motor, home, travel, health, retail or liability insurance, are typically subject to a single or standard commission model, based on the amount of premium charged for the insurance product.

Profit Share arrangements

In some cases, the Broker may be a party to a profit-share arrangement with a product provider and will earn additional commission. Any business arranged with these product providers on a client's behalf will be placed with the product provider because that product provider is at the time of placement, the most suitable to meet the client's requirements, taking all the client's relevant information, demands and needs into account.

Clawback

Clawback is an obligation on the Broker to repay unearned commission. Commission can be paid directly after a contract is concluded but is not deemed to be 'earned' until after a specified period of time. If the consumer cancels or withdraws from the financial product within the specified time, the Broker must return commission to the product producer.

Fees

The firm may also be remunerated by fee by the product producer such as policy fee, admin fee. Include arrangements etc

Other Fees, Administrative Costs/ Non-Monetary Benefits

The firm may also be in receipt of non-monetary benefits such as:

  • Attendance at product provider seminars
  • Assistance with Advertising/Branding
