The reality of the world we live in!

Couper Case Study

• Case involved an adviser switching a client’s existing policy

• Advice given was defective and constituted false or misleading conduct

• Court noted the Adviser’s selling motivation - the Switch yielded a commission, status quo maintenance yielded no commission

• Courts/community now emphasise duty of care requirements. Identifying points of vulnerability and formulating mitigation strategies discharges this duty; unlike pure selling.
