Our Terms of Business in relation to commission
Please refer to the commission section within our Terms of Business for more information on our approach to commission payment.
Please note that our Terms of Business do not provide specific details on the commission terms you will receive as these are agreed on an individual basis and are dependent on a number of factors. Individual commission terms will be communicated when you accept our Terms of Business and start your relationship with Royal London.
What happens if the plan is cancelled early?
Advisers and providers want business to stay on the books for as long as possible and we calculate payment of commission on the basis that a plan will be on our books for a considerable number of years.
We're entitled to claw back a proportion of commission if the plan is cancelled in the early years. The majority of providers do this over the first 4 years, known as full earnings period (FEP). Royal London's default commission model is a Full Earnings Period (FEP) of 4 years.
For firms on historical Reduced Earnings Period (REP) terms, if a REP plan is cancelled in the first year, we claw back the same amount of commission that we would if the plan had been a FEP.
