My primary concern with the clawback provisions in the proposed Life Insurance Framework is...
- Unfairness - clawbacks will apply, even if cancelling or moving the policy inside 3 years is in my client's best interests (60%)
- Uncertainty - to my business, caused by the extended 3-year period during which my income coud be clawed back (23%)
- Unsustainability - my current business could only sustain a 1-year clawback period (11%)
- Unsustainability - my current business could only sustain a 2-year clawback period (2%)
- Other concerns (2%)
- Not sure (2%)
