FAQs from this firm's PDS

Common consumer questions answered in Gsi Insurance Brokers (christchurch) Limited's Public Disclosure Statement. Answers are verbatim spans from the source document, substring-verified at extract time.

What types of insurance can GSI South provide financial advice on?

“We engage financial advisers to provide financial advice on general insurance products on our behalf. These are policies that insure your personal or business assets or protect you or your business assets, liabilities and business income. We are not able to provide advice on medical or life insurance, or any other Financial Advice products, but are able to refer you to associates who are licensed to provide advice on such products.”

What fees will I be charged for financial advice?

“We will charge a fee for the advice given to you and for implementing that advice. The amount of this fee will be disclosed either at the time we know the scope and nature of the advice required or when we provide our advice to you.”

What is premium funding and what are the risks?

“Premium funding products enable you to pay the insurance premium over the term of your policy by instalments rather than as one amount. Premium funders charge interest and they take a power of attorney over your insurance policy, this means they have the ability to cancel your insurance policy if you fail to pay an instalment.”

How do I make a complaint?

“If you are unhappy with our financial advice service please contact your financial adviser so he or she can try to put things right. If you wish to make a complaint or do not feel comfortable discussing your concerns with your adviser, you can contact us as follows: - Call us on 0800 786 631 between the hours of 8.30 am – 5.00 pm on weekdays - Email us at tracy@gsisouth.co.nz - Write to us at the below address”
