Naledi recommends that a client replace an existing long-term insurance policy with a new one. Besides advising the client properly, what additional obligation arises specifically because a long-term policy is being replaced?
RE5 practice question with a worked answer. This is one of hundreds of FSCA RE5 questions in the RegulatoryExams question bank.
- a) The replacement of the long-term policy must be reported to the relevant long-term insurer within the prescribed period.Correct
- b) No analysis is needed at all because the client has already decided to switch.
- c) The client must be told only that there may be unspecified limitations on switching.
- d) The provider may proceed without any comparison of the old and new policies.
Why this is the answer
Replacing a long-term policy triggers a reporting duty to the long-term insurer (so the replacement can be monitored for the client's protection), in addition to the normal duty to do a proper analysis and a documented comparison of the products. Skipping the analysis or comparison is not permitted.
