Ending grandfathered commissions for financial advisers
The Government introduced legislation on 1 August 2019 to end grandfathered commissions by 1 January 2021 and require rebating of commissions to retail clients.
The Government has also consulted on draft regulations, which outline the requirement for financial product manufacturers to pass through to their retail clients the benefits of any previously grandfathered conflicted remuneration still in contracts after 1 January 2021
