Internal Compensation Arrangements and Incentives Sample Clauses

Internal Compensation Arrangements and Incentives. Internal compensation arrangements and incentives (e.g. contests, promotional activities, items, events, charitable donations with tax benefits to representatives), where higher compensation is linked to product type, account balance, investment amount, revenue/sales targets, product complexity and advice, and referrals. Managed through: complying with suitability obligations, commission caps, process controls, alignment with representatives’ work effort and complexity of advice, regular compensation review, performance reviews of representatives and controls for identifying variance from ordinary product distribution mix. Certain internal compensation arrangements and incentives may influence a Representative to act in various self- interested ways. These could include recommending a product that will result in more compensation as opposed to an equivalent (or better) product that more closely meets the client’s investment needs. Alternatively, such arrangements may have the effect of representatives encouraging clients to invest more money in their account or seeking to generate as much client business as possible in order to receive additional compensation. We have policies in place that require representatives to comply with their Know Your Client (“KYC”), Know Your Product (“KYP”) and suitability obligations as further discussed in this Agreement and associated account documents. It is the client’s interest, not the Representative’s interest, that must guide the recommendations made by a Representative to their clients. Representatives must put clients’ interest first when recommending one product or service over another. Representatives must not recommend a product or service because it pays them better than a suitable alternative product available. Regular internal compliance measures are undertaken by CFIS to ensure that Representatives adhere to this principle.
