This document provides key information to help you understand the type of advice I offer, enabling you to make informed and confident decisions when engaging my services.
I am a Financial Adviser providing advice on behalf of Finly NZ Limited (Finly), a Financial Advice Provider licensed by the Financial Markets Authority (FMA).
I provide financial advice specifically related to obtaining loans for purchasing motor vehicles. My process includes:
The advice I provide is based on the information you share regarding your financial position and vehicle purchase needs. It's crucial to provide accurate and complete information to ensure suitable advice. Incomplete or inaccurate information may lead to advice that doesn't meet your needs. If you have questions about why certain information is required, please ask for clarification.
I will assess the following car loan and insurance providers for your loan needs:
Please note that other lenders are available to the public, and I will not be assessing all products' suitability for you.
I am bound by the duties set out in the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013, which include:
I do not charge fees for the advice provided. However, I may receive commissions from lenders when you proceed with a loan through my recommendation. I will receive a commission under the following circumstances:
Commissions are paid to Finly in the month following settlement of your loan. Where your loan is paid out earlier than the full term of the loan, Finly may be subject to a clawback of these commissions on a pro rata basis.
I adhere to a process that ensures recommendations are based solely on your individual goals and circumstances. I receive training on managing conflicts of interest and maintain a register to record any gifts or incentives received. Finly monitors this register and provides additional training as necessary. While I may use tools provided by lenders, such as risk profilers or loan selectors, these do not influence my assessment of suitable lending providers for you.
Neither I nor Finly NZ Limited have been subject to any reliability events as defined in the Financial Markets Conduct Regulations 2014. A reliability event includes matters that might materially influence you in deciding whether to seek advice from me or Finly, such as successful legal proceedings against us or recent bankruptcy.
If you're not satisfied with my financial advice service, please contact me directly to resolve your complaint within five working days. If we cannot reach a resolution, you can refer your complaint to our external Dispute Resolution Service, which is independent and free of charge:
