1. OWNERSHIP

Finsure is ultimately owned by MA Financial Group Limited (ACN 142 008 428).  We will only ever assist you with the credit product that we believe is best for you and your circumstances.  However, in the event that we introduce you to a loan from MA Financial Group Limited’s or any of its subsidiaries we will specifically disclose this ownership relationship to you again to ensure you understand our relationship with them.

 

1. panel lenders

We will provide you with information on a broad range of finance providers and loan products. Once you have chosen a loan or lease that is suitable for you, we will assist in obtaining approval for the finance. We source finance products from a panel of finance providers.

 

1. Information will be required from you

Before we suggest or assist you with entering into a loan (or lease) or increasing the credit limit of an existing loan, we must assess if that loan will be unsuitable for you. In order to do this, we will need to ask you a series of questions to make this assessment. This includes:

 

• making reasonable enquiries about your borrowing objectives and requirements;

• making reasonable enquiries about your financial situation; and

• taking reasonable steps to verify the details of your financial situation.

 

A loan or increasing the credit limit of an existing loan will be unsuitable if at the time of making the assessment, it is likely that you will be unable to repay the loan or lease or can afford to repay it only with substantial hardship; or the loan or lease does not meet your stated requirements or objectives.

 

If we provide you with credit assistance, we will provide you with a copy of our preliminary credit assessment that details how we considered the product we suggested.

 

1. Information provided by us

We do not provide financial or legal advice. It is important to understand your legal obligations under a proposed loan or lease and the financial consequences imposed by the debt. If you have any doubts, you should obtain independent financial and legal advice before you enter into any finance contract.

 

We do not make any representations about the current value of any real estate you finance through us, or the future prospects of its value. You should always rely upon your own enquiries.

 

1. Fees payable by you

We may charge you for our services if you apply for a home loan, an investment property loan, a personal loan or a lease. If a fee is to be charged, this will be disclosed to you in a Credit Quote which will be provided to you before applying for finance.
 

You may need to pay fees to the finance provider as part of the application process. These will be detailed in a Credit Proposal Disclosure Document that we will provide to you before applying for finance.

 

1. Commissions received by us

We may receive commissions from the finance provider that provides your loan or lease. These are not fees payable by you. Further details of the commission earned by us will be provided in the Credit Proposal Disclosure Document that we will provide to you before applying for finance.

 

We may receive additional commissions or bonuses from finance providers relating to the volume of finance that we arrange. Such payments are dependent upon a number of factors and cannot be quantified at this point.

 

1. Commissions and fees payable by us

Referrals from a broad range of sources are sourced by us and our representatives. For example, we or our representatives may pay commissions or fees to call centre companies, real estate agents, accountants, solicitors or other businesses for referring you to us. These are not fees payable by you. Any referral fee or commission paid in relation to your referral will be disclosed in the Credit Proposal Disclosure Document that will be given to you before applying for finance.

 

1. Our internal dispute resolution scheme

We hope that you are delighted with our services. However, if you have any complaints, you may contact our complaints manager who will aim to resolve your complaint within five business days.

If the complaint is going take longer than five business days, we will keep you updated on the progress and provide you a written response when our investigation is complete. This response will let you know the outcome of the investigation and the reasons for our decision.

 

1. Our external dispute resolution scheme 

If you are not satisfied with the outcome of your complaint, or you have not heard from us within 30 days, you may refer the matter to the Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA), an ASIC-approved External Dispute Resolution Scheme. External dispute resolution is a service provided at no cost to you, giving you access to an independent mechanism for the resolution of specific complaints or disputes.  AFCA’s contact details are included above.
