The Financial Services Authority (FSA) made an important announcement in May, emphasizing the need for better treatment of life insurance policyholders in the UK. Their focus is on ensuring that both current and prospective policyholders receive quality advice and support.
A briefing from the FSA highlighted deficiencies in after-sales care in the life insurance sector, indicating that many consumers are not being treated fairly. Sarah Wilson, Director and Sector Leader of the FSA, noted the significance of these findings, stressing that consumers must be able to make informed decisions when purchasing life insurance.
The report points out that consumers often lack the necessary information to make informed choices about their policies. Poor information before and after purchasing leaves many unsure about what they have committed to.
To address this issue, the FSA is urging insurers to provide clearer and more comprehensive explanations of their products. Ensuring consumers understand policy features and performance is crucial. Sales staff must communicate in plain, understandable language to prevent confusion.
The FSA warns that if sales practices and advice do not improve, fines will be imposed on those advisors and companies failing to prioritize consumer interests.
The Association of British Insurers has welcomed these recommendations, embracing the FSA’s call for enhanced consumer satisfaction with life insurance policies.
