If I read this correctly the FPA is saying ongoing commissions (renewals) are not important compared to initial. Please tell me if I'm wrong. If I'm correct in my understanding they have their head in the clouds and no experience as risk advisers looking after clients on a daily basis. This is at least as time consuming as initiation of a policy in many cases. FPA appears to have no clue about risk and what is involved. This fluff they come out with is counterproductive. Appreciate them trying to help but rather they stay out of the way and let the adults involved in proper risk advice get on with it.
