⚠️ Your Exposure

Why financial advisors can't practise without it.

Clients act on your recommendations with real money. When an investment sours, the finger often points at the advice.

📉

Unsuitable Advice

A recommendation later judged unsuitable for the client's needs can lead to a claim for their loss.

📋

Disclosure & Documentation

Gaps in risk disclosure or fact-find records can weaken your defence and expose you.

💸

Mis-Selling Allegations

A client who loses money may allege a product was mis-sold, triggering a claim.

⚖️

Regulatory Complaints

Defending a complaint to the regulator or an ombudsman carries real legal cost.

🔄

Product Failure Fallout

When a recommended product underperforms or fails, clients look to the adviser.

💬

Client Disputes

Even unfounded disputes need defending. Your cover funds it.

📁 Real Scenarios

Claims financial advisors actually face.

These aren't edge cases. A single advice claim can outweigh years of trail income.

  1. Unsuitable recommendation: A client claims the advice didn't match their risk profile and pursues their loss.
  2. Disclosure gap: A client alleges a key risk wasn't explained before they invested.
  3. Mis-selling claim: A poorly-performing product prompts an allegation of mis-sale.
  4. Suitability dispute: A regulator complaint alleges the advice process fell short.
  5. Documentation shortfall: Weak fact-find records make an otherwise sound recommendation hard to defend.
