O’Malley Scanlon Insurance acts as an Intermediary (Broker) between you, the consumer, and the Product Provider with whom we place your business.
Pursuant to provision 4.58A of the Central Bank of Ireland’s September 2019 Addendum to the Consumer Protection Code, all intermediaries, must make available in their public offices, or on their website, a summary of the details of all arrangements for any fee, commission, other reward or remuneration provided to the Intermediary which it was agreed with its Product Producers.

Remuneration is the payment earned by the Intermediary for work undertaken on behalf of both the Provider and the Consumer. The amount of remuneration is generally directly related to the premium or value of the products sold.
Commission is payment that may be earned by an Intermediary for work undertaken for both Provider and Consumer.
There are different types of remuneration and different commission models:
Single Commission Model: Where payment is made to the Intermediary shortly after the transaction is completed and is based on a percentage of the premium paid less 5% levies on Gross Premium.
General Insurance Products, such as Motor, Home, Travel, Health, Retail or Liability Insurance, are typically subject to a single commission model, based on the amount of premium charged for the Insurance Product.
In some cases, the Intermediary may be a party to a profit-share arrangement with a product provider and will earn additional commission. Any business arranged with these Product Providers on a client’s behalf will be placed with the Product Provider is at the time of placement, the most suitable to meet the client’s requirements, taking all of the client’s relevant information, demands and needs in to account.
Clawback is an obligation on the Intermediary to repay unearned commission. Commission can be paid directly after a transaction is concluded but is not deemed to be ‘earned’ until after a specified period of time. If the consumer cancels or withdraws from the financial product within the specified time, the Intermediary must return commission to the Product Producer.
The firm may also be in receipt of other fees, administrative costs, or non-monetary benefits such as:
• Assistance with Advertising/Branding
The enclosed commission guidance section gives indicative values across every Product Provider and every product advised whereby a commission is received within our business. This is the maximum our Brokerage may receive and is subject to change. We may receive a lower remuneration than the enclosed percentages/amounts.
Commission may be earned by Intermediaries for arranging credit for consumers, such as Premium Finance. The single, or standard, commission model is the most common commission model applied to the sale of credit products.
