Our financial advisers provide financial advice in relation to Health and Life insurance (Personal & Business Risk Insurance). We only provide financial advice about products from certain providers: - **For Life Insurance**, we work with six insurance providers – AIA, Asteron, Chubb, Fidelity Life, Partners Life and PPS Mutual. - **For Health Insurance**, we work with five insurance providers – Unimed, AIA, NIB, Southern Cross, and Partners Life. --- ## Fees or Expenses Parka Insurances may charge a fee for the financial advice provided to a client in the following circumstances: - Where a client cancels a life, income, mortgage, trauma or health insurance policy within two years of starting the policy. Whether we charge a fee and how it will be charged will be advised when we provide the client's advice. This fee will be payable by the client by the 20th of the month after the policy is cancelled. - Where Parka does not receive a commission from an insurer. A one-off fee may be charged. Any such fee would be agreed and authorised by you in writing before services are completed and would be based on an estimate of the time spent providing the advice or service. --- ## Conflicts of Interest & Professional Incentives For Health and Life Insurance products, Parka Insurances and the Financial Adviser will receive commissions from the insurance companies on whose policies we deliver advice. If you decide to take out insurance, the insurer will pay a commission to Parka Insurances and your Financial Adviser. The amount of the commission is based on the amount of the premium. More detailed information is provided at the time advice is given. From time-to-time, insurance providers may also reward Parka Insurances for business we provide to them i.e. they may provide tickets to events, gift hampers, or offer minor incentives. To ensure that our Financial Advisers prioritise the client's interests above their own, we follow an advice process that ensures our recommendations are made on the basis of the client's goals and circumstances. We further manage possible conflicts of interest by: - Avoiding any production requirements set by any one provider - Ensuring access to a range of insurance providers - Using third party product research tools as a part of our analysis - Having our processes audited annually by an external compliance adviser --- ## Complaints Handling and Dispute Resolution If you are not satisfied with our financial advice service, you can make a complaint by emailing **admin@parka.co.nz** or by calling: **04 974 5657**.
