Who is responsible for notifying policy changes?
There is no doubt the obligation is on the insurer who the contract is with. Clearly it would be prudent for an adviser to assist once given clear information by an insurer to assist with the communication but to extend this further. For an insurer to attempt to slide this onto an advisers plate is abdication. The adviser can not change the contract.

FMA CEO on leave
At the risk of sounding like a broken record, the fundamental flaw in the legislation came about partly through the event that Murray mentions, and also through the negligence of the Select Committee in ignoring the single most cited recommendation in all the submissions (over 34% from memory) of drawing a distinction between product sales and financial advice. To add to their misdemeanour, the Committee then added a paragraph to the Bill confirming that recommendation of one product only constituted financial advice - or words to that effect. The inherent conflict of interest lies in an individual retained by a Class 4 licensee being required to adhere to a code of conduct that requires prioritisation of client interests. To expect a product sales person to subordinate their contractual obligation to their employer is unrealistic, unworkable, and unreasonable. To emphasise, I have no issue with a product provider marketing and selling their own products - but not behind the opaque veil of legislation intended to govern financial advice. If MBIE ever gets around to review FSLAA, Financial Advisers, FANZ, and all other interested stakeholders should mount a fully-funded intensive campaign to persuade our employees in Wellington to remove class 4 licensees from FSLAA, and replace their obligations within an amended CoFI Act.

@Murray: The reps seemed to be acting on their personal interests rather than the interests of advisers. Conflict of interest, isn't it?

KiwiSaver funds shake off Middle East tension
In this recent presentation of mine https://www.knowrisk.co.nz I show that the average Balanced KiwiSaver fund has added approximately +0.43% over and above the gross average policy Benchmark's return's. However, the averge annual costs of -0.97% for Balanced funds have eroded that to be slighly below BMK after costs consistent with typical SPIVA studies. Note this cost number is for the 45 Balanced Funds used only - for all KiwiSaver Funds it is closer to -0.70% p.a. The presentation goes on to show that quite a bit of return is being left on the table by the one size fits all view of risk.
