Remuneration
Generally we are paid a commission by the insurer for arranging the policy which is based on a percentage of the premium less stamp duty, fire services levy, GST and any other government charges, taxes, fees or levies. The rate depends on the policy and may range from 0% - 25% (however some travel products may attract up to 40%). Some insurers may pay more than others.
We may also charge you a fee to cover our administration costs as well as receiving commission from the insurer.
We may elect to charge you a Fee for Service instead of receiving commission from the insurer. Fees for Service are based on the complexity of the advice given, arranging and placing the recommended program and other services which we may agree upon.
In addition to the above we may receive commission from a premium funder if we arrange this service on your behalf. Premium funding products enable you to pay your premiums by instalments. Premium funders do charge interest. The commission we receive is usually calculated as a percentage of the premium and may be up to 3%. NAS Insurance Brokers may receive an override commission of 1.5% from Centrepoint Alliance Limited and Hunter Premium Funding Limited, of which Your Risk Adviser may receive a portion.
Your Risk Adviser may also receive a portion of an overrider from various insurance companies as provided by NAS' membership of Insight.
Where a third party has referred you to us, we may share part of our fee with them or pay an agreed referral rate. We will pay the third party out of our commission or fees and not in addition to those amounts. Your Risk Adviser will provide a Statement of Advice or a Remuneration Report which will provide the dollar amounts paid to the third party.
NAS receives standard bank interest from its trust account funds from monies collected from you and remitted to insurers. Any interest shall be entirely to our benefit.
