    Insurance products: commission disclosure

    When insurance cover products become available through When I Am Gone, they will be offered as a registered Financial Services Provider (FSP No: 55699). As a licensed FSP, When I Am Gone may earn regulated remuneration in connection with insurance products, in accordance with the Financial Advisory and Intermediary Services Act and applicable subordinate legislation. The nature and amount of any such remuneration will be disclosed to you before any transaction takes place.

    Vault and handover tools are administrative services

    The WIAG vault and handover pack are administrative storage and handover tools, not financial services products. Insurance advice and intermediary services, where applicable, are provided only through WIAG's authorised financial-services framework or authorised partners, and will be clearly identified as such before any engagement.
