Your Trusted Partner in Compliance — Guiding You with Confidence
Advice & Documentation
A Record of Advice (ROA) is a formal document that records your client’s needs and objectives, the advice you provided, and the reasons for your recommendation.
It is required at new business (policy inception), at renewal, and whenever changes are made to a policy.
Think of your ROA as your strongest protection — if it’s not documented, it doesn’t exist in the eyes of the regulator.
A compliant ROA should clearly demonstrate your advice process and include the client’s needs and objectives, relevant financial information, products considered, the basis for your recommendation, and key risks, limitations, and disclosures.
If your ROA doesn’t explain why the product was suitable, it’s not compliant.
A needs analysis is the foundation of your advice process. It involves understanding your client’s risks, financial position, and insurance needs and gaps.
Without a proper needs analysis, you cannot demonstrate suitable advice.
Yes. Renewals are treated as new advice events.
Even where no changes are made, suitability must be reassessed, any changes must be highlighted, and updated advice must be recorded.
No. An SLA outlines services provided, while an ROA records advice given to a client. These documents are not interchangeable.
At Quicksure, we believe compliance should empower your business — not slow it down.
This page is designed to give you clear, practical guidance to help you stay compliant, confident, and audit-ready.
At Quicksure, compliance isn’t just about rules — it’s about doing the right thing for your clients and your business.
And remember — our Compliance Connection Team is here to support you every step of the way.
Fees & Commission
If you charge any additional broker or service fees, you must obtain explicit, informed client consent before policy inception and ensure it applies per policy.
A generic agreement or SLA is not sufficient.
The client must clearly understand what the fee is for, the amount being charged, and why it is being levied.
Additional fees must not duplicate commission, must not relate to intermediary services already remunerated, and must be agreed to in writing by the client.
These must comply with the Policyholder Protection Rules (PPR), including Rule 12.4.
If in doubt — speak to us before charging.
A needs analysis is the foundation of your advice process. It involves understanding your client’s risks, financial position, and insurance needs and gaps.
Without a proper needs analysis, you cannot demonstrate suitable advice.
Yes — but only if the fee is for a separate, non-intermediary service and there is no duplication of remuneration.
Communication & Client Responsibility
Yes. This is a regulatory requirement.
This includes policy schedules, renewal notices, and material changes to cover.
Even if communication is facilitated via a broker, you must be able to demonstrate that the client received the information.
Where communication is routed via a broker, you must retain evidence of onward transmission.
Yes — best practice is at least 31 days’ notice.
Especially for premium increases, cover changes, and excess changes.
This is a key regulatory and audit focus area.
A needs analysis is the foundation of your advice process. It involves understanding your client’s risks, financial position, and insurance needs and gaps.
Without a proper needs analysis, you cannot demonstrate suitable advice.
Compliance & Regulatory Framework
Treating Customers Fairly (TCF) requires you to act in the best interests of your client, communicate clearly and transparently, and deliver fair and appropriate outcomes.
TCF is embedded in regulatory expectations — not optional.
At a minimum, the following should be maintained:
• Record of Advice (ROA)
• Consent to Fees (if applicable)
• Policy schedule
• Disclosure documentation
• Records of communication
These must be readily available for audit and compliance review.
Fit & Proper requirements ensure that representatives are qualified, competent, and meet honesty and integrity standards.
This is a core requirement under FAIS and is regularly assessed.
During an audit, the following may be reviewed:
• ROAs and advice records
• Client disclosures
• Consent to Fees
• Communication records
• Advice suitability
Good records = a smooth audit process.
Failure to maintain adequate records may result in:
• FAIS non-compliance findings
• Adverse Ombud rulings
• Financial loss
• Reputational damage
Your documentation is your primary defence.
Address it immediately, correct records where possible, and notify the relevant parties if required.
Most importantly — contact the Quicksure Compliance Connection Team early. Early intervention prevents escalation, audit findings, and Ombud exposure.

POPIA & Data Protection
The Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) governs how client data must be handled.
You must collect only necessary information, store it securely, and use it lawfully and responsibly.
Client data may not be shared without proper consent or legal basis.
- Avoid sharing sensitive information via unsecured channels (e.g., WhatsApp)
- Use secure email practices (including encryption where possible)
- Limit access to authorised persons only
Support & Guidance
Yes — we are here to support you.
We provide ROA templates, Consent to Fees templates, and practical compliance guidance.
Our goal is to help you remain compliant, confident, and audit-ready.
The broker (intermediary) remains ultimately responsible.
However, Quicksure provides guidance, tools, and oversight and works collaboratively to support compliance.
Compliance is a partnership — but accountability rests with the intermediary.
Reach out to us.
We would always prefer to assist proactively rather than address issues during an audit or complaint.
Early guidance prevents future risk.
