CBOI CPC Addendum – Commission Summary Access

Please see below an update from CRM/technology providers re. the Central Bank’s CPC Addendum Commission Summary requirement which came into effect on 31st March 2020.

APPLIED SYSTEMS

Applied’s understanding of the requirement is as follows:

• There is an obligation on each broker to display a summary of all remunerations that the brokerage can avail of from product providers
• The summary must include details of insurer, product and commission rate.
• The summary must be published / accessible to customers.
• All brokers must be compliant by 31st March 2020.

Commission rates are added to the system and maintained by each broker, not Applied. In order to help brokers achieve compliance, Applied have published articles with step-by-step instructions on obtaining commission information:

• Applied Relay: Applied Community article #000023342
• Applied WealthTrack:  Applied Community article #000023360

It is the responsibility of each broker to display this information as per Central Bank requirements.

Further Information

• Check back in on Applied Community article #000023344 for the latest information available to Applied.
