by Austral Construction Pty Ltd and subsidiary and associated companies.
All insurance policies have the same period of insurance which is 01/12/2013 to 30/11/2014 apart from the
Combined Public Liability / Professional Indemnity policy which has a period of insurance of 31/10/2013 to
30/11/2014 and Management Liability which has a period of insurance of 01/06/2013 to 30/06/2014.

SECTION 3
claims procedures
SECTION 3 Claims Procedures
This Section is designed to provide assistance in the procedures to be followed in the event of any incident
that might give rise to a claim occurring under any of your insurance policies.
All claims (except where otherwise agreed and noted herein) are to be reported immediately to CKA.
Motor Vehicle Claims
All employees authorised to drive company vehicles must familiarise themselves with this procedure.
In the event of an Accident

stop and exchange name and address with the other party involved.

record the registration number and make of other vehicle.

ensure that the exact location of the accident is noted, together with times and conditions of road (e.g.
slippery - following heavy rain).

record names and addresses of as many witnesses as possible at the scene of the accident.

report accident to Police if required to do so.
Please note:
Discussions concerning negligence of either party involved in the accident must not
be entered into. Simply advise the other party that you will report the matter to your
Insurers and that they will contact the third party direct.
Reporting the accident

Phone CKA and report the accident.
Damage to a third party vehicle or property

Obtain details of third party's Name, Address and Insurance Company.

Do not discuss fault or make any admission of liability.
AUSTRAL CONSTRUCTION PTY LTD / INSURANCE MANUAL
PAGE 39
Public and or Products Claims
Upon the happening of any incident likely to give rise to a claim, the following points must be noted:

All reasonable steps should be taken to protect property from further loss or damage.

Protect any person from personal injury or seek immediate medical and/or emergency assistance.

Immediate advice must be given to CKA.

All documentation or advice or correspondence from the third party must be forwarded to CKA.

No correspondence should be entered into with a third party without prior advice and approval from
CKA or Insurers.

Do not make any statement to a Loss Assessor or any other person investigating the accident or
damage unless such person is acting on behalf of your Insurer – if in doubt, please contact CKA.
Insurers will generally appoint a Loss Assessor to handle the matter. It is in order to follow the advice of the
appointed Assessor and to deal through them regarding the claim. Insurers may also appoint Solicitors to act
on their behalf and to protect your interests.
Professional Indemnity and Directors & Officers Liability
Professional Indemnity and Directors & Officers Liability policies are both underwritten on a “Claims Made”
basis. This means that the policy period in which you first become aware of a possible claim is the policy
period that will respond to the claim, not the policy period that was current when the alleged negligent act,
error or omission occurred.
It is therefore important that you notify CKA immediately upon becoming aware of any circumstance
that you believe may give rise to a claim.
Contract Works Claims
In the event that a claim for loss or damage to the works is likely to exceed the policy deductibles, then the
Project Manager should provide immediate notice to CKA Risk Solutions with the following information:

The name of the project affected and its location;

Details of the nature of the loss or damage;

Name of site contact person; and

Estimate of the loss before any deductible.
Following initial notification, the Project Manager should complete and send a copy of the initial claim advice
form (refer to copy in this section) to CKA Risk Solutions.
CKA Risk Solutions and/or the Insurer will appoint a Loss Adjuster to investigate the loss or damage.
AUSTRAL CONSTRUCTION PTY LTD / INSURANCE MANUAL
PAGE 40
The following points are important:

DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES delay in reporting the loss or damage, otherwise Austral
Constructions may prejudice its rights of recovery.

DO MINIMISE THE LOSS OR DAMAGE if in the judgement of Senior Site Management such action is
warranted.

PHOTOGRAPH all lost or damaged property before commencing remedial work. If possible retain lost
or damaged property for inspection by the appointed Loss Adjuster.
Marine Transit Claims
In the event of short delivery or damage to Insured goods the following steps should be taken:

Details of the loss should be promptly notified to CKA Risk Solutions with the following information:− Precise location of damaged goods (and name of vessel, if applicable)
− Name of contact/phone and/or fax number
− Nature of damage
− Estimate of damage

CKA Risk Solutions will notify the Insurer and arrange for the loss to be assessed by a loss Surveyor
(if required).

To facilitate settlement, the following documentation should be provided in support of your claim:
− Copy of original bill of loading and/or carriers consignment note
− Original of copy of suppliers invoice
− Delivery receipts by consignees verifying non delivery/damage
− Copies of correspondence exchanged with carriers or other bailees regarding their liability for
shortage or damage

In claims of this type, Georgiou Group is required to take steps reasonable for the purposes of averting
or minimising a loss and to ensure that all rights against carriers, bailees or third parties are properly
preserved and exercised. In particular:
− To claim immediately on the carriers, port authorities or other bailees for any missing packages.
− In no circumstance, except under written protest to give clean receipts where goods are in doubtful
condition.
− When delivery is effected by container, to ensure that the container and it seals are examined
immediately by their responsible officer. If the container is delivered damaged or with its seals
broken or missing or with seals other than as stated in the shipping document, to clause the
delivery receipt accordingly and retain all defective or irregular seals for subsequent identification.
AUSTRAL CONSTRUCTION PTY LTD / INSURANCE MANUAL
AUSTR959676
PAGE 41
− To apply immediately for survey by carriers, or other bailees representatives, if loss or damage be
apparent and claim on carriers or other bailees for any actual loss or damage found at such
survey.
− To give notice in writing to the carriers or other bailees within three (3) days of delivery if loss or
damage was not apparent at the time of taking delivery.
Industrial Special Risks
In the event of loss or damage, a claim form should be completed and forwarded to CKA Risk Solutions. Use
the Initial Claim Advice form (refer to copy in this section).

CKA Risk Solutions will, if necessary have a Loss Adjuster appointed.

Photographs should be taken of the property damaged for viewing by the Loss Adjuster and physical
remains of property should be retained for the same purpose.

DO NOT delay in reporting an occurrence which Austral Constructions considers is indemnifiable as
this could lead to Insurers denying liability.

CKA Risk Solutions will follow the claim through to final settlement.
All other claims/losses
To enable the completion of the claim without delay and to minimise the possible damage or injury incurred, it
is important that the following action be taken.

All reasonable steps must be taken (regardless of insurance) to:
− protect the property from further loss or damage
− protect any person from injury or seek immediate medical and/or emergency assistance.

Any incident, which may give rise to a claim, should be immediately reported to CKA to avoid any
potential for denial of liability by Insurers alleging late notification.

Any loss by theft and/or wilful or malicious damage should be immediately advised to the Police and
relevant Government agency.

Complete the appropriate claim form and provide all the associated and necessary claims documents.

Forward all the claim documentation to CKA without delay.

SECTION 4
important notices
SECTION 4 IMPORTANT NOTICES
Your Duty of Disclosure
Before you enter into a contract of general insurance with an insurer, you have a duty, under the Insurance
Contracts Act 1984, to disclose to the insurer every matter that you know, or could reasonably be expected to
know, is relevant to the insurer’s decision whether to accept the risk of the insurance and, if so, on what
terms.
You have the same duty to disclose those matters to the insurer before you renew, extend, vary or reinstate a
contract of general insurance.
Your duty, however, does not require disclosure of any matter:

That diminishes the risk to be undertaken by the insurer.

That is of common knowledge or public knowledge.

That your insurer knows or, in the ordinary course of his business, ought to know.

As to which compliance with your duty is waived by the insurer.
If you fail to comply with your duty of disclosure, the insurer may be entitled to reduce its liability under the
contract in respect of a claim or may cancel the contract.
If your non-disclosure is fraudulent, the insurer may also have the option of voiding the contract from the
beginning.
Detailed below are some examples of information that should be disclosed to the insurers:
Personal Information

Past claims.

Prior criminal convictions.

Bankruptcy or any default.

Past driving history (eg. dangerous driving or driving under the influence).

Prior refusal by insurers to insure you or where they have imposed increased loadings or deductibles.
AUSTRAL CONSTRUCTION PTY LTD / INSURANCE MANUAL
PAGE 43
Other Business Information

Acquisition of new companies, operations either in Australia or overseas.

The purchase, leasing or change in tenancy of any new or existing premises.

The purchase, loan, or lease of any items of plant, machinery, equipment or contents.

The temporary hire of any items of plant (eg. gen sets, motor vehicles or mobile plant).

The entering into or any agreement whereby you forego your rights to indemnity from another party,
eg. lease agreements, fire & security monitoring agreements.

Changes to your normal processes or business operations.

Introduction of new or modified products.

The disconnection or the rendering of any fire or security system in-operative.

The chartering of any aircraft or water craft.

Any capital raising or the listing on any foreign Stock Exchange.

Any alterations, extensions or modifications to your office, premises or factory.
If you are in any doubt whatsoever regarding your disclosure obligations, please discuss this issue with CKA.
Utmost Good Faith
Every insurance contract is subject to the doctrine of utmost good faith, which requires that the parties to the
contract should act toward each other with the utmost good faith. Failure to do so on your part may prejudice
any claim or the continuation of cover provided by your insurer.
Essential Reading of Policy Wording
A full copy of your policy wording will be passed onto you as soon as it is received from your insurer. It is
absolutely essential that you read this document without delay and advise CKA in writing of any aspects
which are not clear, incorrect or where the cover does not meet with your requirements.
Change of Risk or Circumstances
It is vital that you advise us of any departure from your “normal” business or to that which has already been
conveyed to your insurer e.g. new acquisitions, changes in occupation or location, new products or new
overseas activities.
In order to ensure proper protection, please consult us if you are in any doubt as to whether an insurer
should or should not be told of certain changes. We would rather address these queries now rather than
take the risk of you not having protection under your policies.
Subrogation and/or Waiver of Rights
Some policies contain provisions that either exclude the insurer from liability or reduce their liability, if you
have entered into any agreements that exclude or limit your rights to recover damages from another party
in relation to any loss, damage or destruction which would allow you to sustain a claim under an insurance
policy.
AUSTRAL CONSTRUCTION PTY LTD / INSURANCE MANUAL
AUSTR959676
PAGE 44
You may prejudice your rights to a claim if, without prior agreement of your insurer, you make any
agreement with a third party that will prevent the insurer from recovering the loss from that or any another
party. Examples of such agreements are the “hold harmless” clauses, which are often found in tenancy
leases, maintenance or supply contracts from burglar alarm or fire protection installers and in repair
contracts.
Under-Insurance
Some policies, such as Industrial Special Risks, General Property, Business Interruption, House &
Contents and Machinery Breakdown, contain an “average” or “under-insurance” or “co-insurance” clause.
This clause requires you to bear a proportion of any loss in the event your sum insured is not adequate to
cover the full amount of the loss. For example, if the replacement cost of your house is $400,000 and you
have only insured the building for $300,000, then effectively, your insurer is insuring 75% of the house and
you are insuring the remaining 25%. In the event of a fire causing $200,000 damage, your insurer would
only be obliged to pay $150,000 (ie $200,000 x 75%) and you would be liable for the balance.
It is particularly important to ensure that the sums insured are adequate and declared in accordance with
the policy requirements to avoid the application of any under-insurance provisions. If in any doubt, please
contact our office.
Un-Named Parties
Most policies will exclude indemnity to other parties unless their interest is properly declared and noted on
the policy. If you require the interest of any party other than the named insured to be covered, you must
specifically request this and detail the nature of the relationship between you and the other party e.g.
mortgage with a bank, lease agreement on your motor vehicle.
Claims Made Policies
Some policies, such as Professional Indemnity, Directors & Officers Liability and Crime provide cover on a
“claims made” basis which means that claims first advised to you (or made against you) and reported to
the insurer during the period of insurance are covered irrespective of when the incident causing the claim
occurred, subject to the provisions of any clause relating to “Retrospective Cover” (see the following
heading titled “Retrospective Cover”).
In order to ensure that your entitlement to indemnity under this policy is protected, you must report all
incidents that may give rise to a claim against you to the insurer without delay after such incidents come to
your attention and prior to expiration of the policy period.
Not a Renewable Contract
Cover on certain policies, such as Professional Indemnity, Directors & Officers and Crime, terminate on the
date advised to you or as indicated on our debit notes/invoices. We emphasise that these policies are NOT
renewable contracts. If you wish to effect similar insurance for any subsequent period, it will be necessary
for you to complete a new proposal form well prior to the termination of the current policy so that terms on
the new insurance can be obtained in time for your consideration.
AUSTRAL CONSTRUCTION PTY LTD / INSURANCE MANUAL
AUSTR959676
PAGE 45
Retrospective Cover
Certain policies, such as Professional Indemnity, Directors & Officers and Crime, do not provide cover in
respect of claims arising out of work performed or services rendered or events occurring prior to the date
specified, known as the Retroactive Date. Usually, this cover can be obtained upon specific request and if
available, an additional premium will usually apply. Please consult CKA if this cover is required or if you
have any questions in this regard.
Direct Offshore Foreign Insurer
If any of your policies either in part or in whole, are with or to be insured by a Direct Foreign Offshore
Insurer (DOFI), we are required to provide you with written notice. DOFI’s are insurance companies that
are not based in Australia and do not fall under the financial regulators such as ASIC. This notice will
provide details on the DOFI including, their name, country of incorporation and details of their website
where you can access further information on their operations and financial standing. We will require you to
provide written acknowledgement of your approval to use the DOFI.
Terrorism
th
With the advent of the terrorist attacks on America on the 11 September 2001 and the global concerns on
terrorism, insurers are no longer able to provide this cover and terrorism and/or any act of terrorism is now
a standard exclusion on most insurance policies.
As a result of this, the Federal Government in conjunction with the insurance industry have put together a
scheme to provide some cover for acts of terrorism. This is embodied in the Commonwealth Governments
st
Terrorism Insurance Act 2003 (the Act) effective from the 1 July 2003.
Certain policies now include a terrorism levy in the premium and in return for this, the Act will provide some
cover in the event the Government declares a terrorism event. The Government administers the scheme
and determines amount to be paid to you. The scheme is guaranteed by the Government to the value of
A$10bn. Any payments in excess of this amount may be proportionally reduced by the Treasury and if
applicable, this could have the effect of reducing any payment to you.
Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Most, but not all, insurance policies are now subject to GST and this will be recorded on your invoice. The
advent of GST also impacts on sums insured and accordingly, the claim payment by an insurer in the
event of a claim. Your ability to claim Input Tax Credits is important when it comes to the treatment of GST
in the event of a claim. Due to the complex nature of the treatment of GST, it is difficult to detail all the
scenarios that may apply to your various policies and accordingly, CKA are happy to discuss individual
cases with you. You should also seek specific tax advice from your accountant to ascertain your own
individual circumstances.
AUSTRAL CONSTRUCTION PTY LTD / INSURANCE MANUAL
AUSTR959676
PAGE 46
Binder Agreements
CKA may have binder agreements with certain insurers under which we are authorised to bind cover with
those insurers without prior reference to them.
When acting under this binder agreement, we will be effecting the insurance on behalf of the insurer and
acting as their agent, not as your agent. This would only apply to the policy falling under the binder
agreement and not affect the broker/client relationship in respect of all your other classes of insurance with
CKA.
Mis-Statement of Premiums
CKA take all reasonable effort to ensure the premiums (including all statutory charges) quoted to you are
correct. The statutory charges in particular, are subject to constant change and vary markedly on a “state
by state” basis. Some charges, such as Fire Service Levy (in NSW and Victoria) are subject to retroactive
adjustments 12 months in arrears.
In the event that the premium is incorrectly quoted by CKA or is subject to change (ie. NSW Fire Service
Levy), CKA reserve the right to amend the premium to the correct amount for which you are liable to pay.
Insurance Ombudsman Service
The Insurance Ombudsman Service Ltd (IOSL) is a national scheme to assist consumers in resolving their
disputes with their insurer. The scheme also provides advice on any general insurance matter.
All insurers are required by the IOSL to have a documented Internal Dispute Resolution process and a
nominated Complaints Officer (CO) to deal with complaints by their consumers. Any complaint should be
directed in the first instance to the Complaints Officer of the relevant insurer.
In the event that your dispute is not resolved in a reasonable period to your satisfaction, you have the right
to address your dispute to the IOSL who can be contacted on phone number 1300 363 683. The IOSL will
advise and assist you on the next course of action to help resolve your dispute.

Insurance Terms Glossary
Some commonly used terms are peculiar to the insurance market and as such, we have detailed
explanations to some of these terms below as a quick guide for you.
Indemnity
The principal of indemnity is to place you in the same financial position after a loss as that which you
occupied immediately before the loss. You do not receive "new for old".
Reinstatement And Replacement
The basis of settlement for property insured under these conditions would be the cost of replacement or
restoration with new materials to a condition substantially the same as, but not better or more extensive than
its condition when new.
Extra Cost of Reinstatement
Provides protection for additional costs to comply with Government Regulations following the loss, provided
you had not been advised of such requirements prior to the loss.
Co-insurance
If the actual value of the property exceeds the amount stated in your declaration, you may be expected to
bear a proportionate part of a loss.
Deductible
Also called “excess”, is the amount the insured is required by the policy to contribute towards a loss.
Gross Profit
Is the amount, which the total of the turnover and closing stock exceeds the total of the opening stock and the
uninsured working expenses as specified in the policy.
Dual Basis Payroll
Salaries and wages are insured under a flexible method whereby you can decide the manner in which a
claim may be lodged subject to certain limitations stated in the policy.
Indemnity Period
Is the period from the date of the damage and ending not later than the period specified thereafter during
which the business is affected by the damage.
Subrogation
Your Insurer may wish to recover from a third party responsible for damage to your property.
Consequently, the Insurer requires that you subrogate (or substitute) your rights to sue in favour of your
Insurer who has reimbursed you for the cost of the damage. Your insurance policy may be conditional that
you do not “waive your rights or hold harmless” other parties such as workmen who come onto your
property.
AUSTRAL CONSTRUCTION PTY LTD / INSURANCE MANUAL
AUSTR959676
PAGE 51
Inherent Vice
This term refers to a quality inherent in property, which produces damage to the property without the
assistance of an outside agency and by its own action eg. spontaneous combustion of copper concentrate.
Free on Board
Relates to the cost and charges from the supplier's works, including the cost of the goods, cases, packing,
rail, delivery charges, dock charges, insurance, customs and agents charges at the port of shipment. In other
words the total cost of the goods to be delivered onto the vessel.
Cost, Insurance & Freight (CIF)
The FOB cost plus freight, insurance and all other charges for delivery to the declared port or final

General Average
A term used in Maritime Law to cover special claims. Briefly it means that if property or a vessel is sacrificed
for the common good of all property on the vessel, then all parties involved will contribute to the loss of those
whose goods were sacrificed ie. if a ship carrying goods on our behalf were forced to jettison your goods for
the safety of the ship as a whole, then the owners (or their Insurers) of the other cargo on the ship would
contribute so as to reduce your loss. Similar principles would apply for other owners if their cargo were
jettisoned to protect yours.

GENERAL ADVICE WARNING
Typically CKA only provides general advice to our retail clients*. General advice does not take into account
your personal needs and objectives and you should consider the appropriateness of this advice to your
circumstances before acting on it. We will provide you with a general advice warning in such cases.
When you ask us to recommend an insurance policy for you, we will usually only consider the policies offered
by the insurers or insurance providers that we deal with regularly. In giving you advice about the costs and
terms of recommended polices we have not compared those policies to other policies available, other than
from those insurers we deal with regularly.
FURTHER INFORMATION WHEN PERSONAL ADVICE IS GIVEN TO RETAIL CLIENTS*
CKA will provide you with further information whenever we provide you with advice which takes into account
your objectives, financial situation and needs. This information may be contained in a Statement of Advice
(SoA) and may include the advice that we have given you, the basis of the advice and information on our
remuneration and relevant associations or interests.
PRODUCT DISCLOSURE STATEMENT
If CKA offer to arrange the issue of an insurance policy to you and you are a retail client*, we will also provide
you with, or pass on to you, a Product Disclosure Statement (PDS), unless you already have an up to date
PDS. The PDS will contain information about the particular policy which will enable you to make an informed
decision about purchasing that policy.
FROM WHEN DOES THIS FSG APPLY?
This FSG applies from 8 May 2013 and remains valid unless a further FSG is issued to replace it. We may
give you a supplementary FSG. It will not replace this FSG but will provide details not covered by this FSG.
HOW CAN I INSTRUCT YOU?
You can contact us to give us instructions verbally, by post, phone, fax or email on the contact number or
details mentioned on the top of this page. We recommend that your verbal instructions always be confirmed
in writing.
WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FINANCIAL SERVICES PROVIDED?
CKA is responsible for the financial services that will be provided to you or through you to your family
members, including the distribution of this FSG. CKA holds a current Australian Financial Services Licensee
no: 276915.
WHAT FINANCIAL SERVICES ARE YOU AUTHORISED TO PROVIDE AND WHAT KINDS OF
FINANCIAL PRODUCT(S) DO THOSE SERVICES RELATE TO?
CKA is authorised to advise and deal in general insurance products to wholesale and/or retail clients. We will
do this for you as your broker unless we tell you otherwise. Sometimes we will act under a binder or agency
from the insurer, and in this case we will be acting as the agent of the insurer. This means that we represent
and act for the insurer, not for you. We will tell you when we act under a binder or agency to arrange your
insurance or advise you about your insurance needs.
WILL I RECEIVE TAILORED ADVICE?
In some cases, CKA may need information about your personal objectives, details of your current financial
situation and any relevant information, so that we can arrange or issue insurance policies for you or to give
AUSTRAL CONSTRUCTION PTY LTD / INSURANCE MANUAL

PAGE 53
you advice about your insurance needs. We will ask you for the details that we need to know. If you do not
give us all of the information we ask for, any advice you receive may not be appropriate to your needs,
objectives and financial situation. You should read the warnings contained in any SOA, or any other
warnings that we give you, carefully, before making any decision about an insurance policy. Where we
provide you with advice about your insurance arrangements, that advice is current at the time that we give it.
We will review your insurance arrangements when you inform us about changes in your circumstances.
CONTRACTUAL LIABILITY AND YOUR INSURANCE COVER
Many commercial or business contracts contain clauses dealing with your liability (including indemnities or
hold harmless clauses). Such clauses may entitle your insurers to reduce cover, or in some cases, refuse to
indemnify you at all. You should seek legal advice before signing and accepting contracts. You should inform
us of any clauses of this nature before you enter into them.
WHAT INFORMATION DO YOU MAINTAIN IN MY FILE AND CAN I EXAMINE MY FILE?
CKA maintain a record of your personal profile, including details of insurance policies that we arrange or
issue for you. We may also maintain records of any recommendations or advice given to you. We will retain
this FSG and any other FSG given to you as well as any SOA or PDS that we give or pass on to you for the
period required by law.
We are committed to implementing and promoting a privacy policy, which will ensure the privacy and security
of your personal information. A copy of our privacy policy is available on request. A copy is also available on
our website, www.ckarisksolutions.com. If you wish to look at your file please ask us, we will make
arrangements for you to do so.
HOW WILL I PAY FOR THE SERVICES PROVIDED?
For each insurance product the insurer will charge a premium that includes any relevant taxes, charges and
levies. CKA often receive a payment based on a percentage of this premium (excluding relevant taxes,
charges and levies) called commission, which is paid to us by the insurers. However, in some cases we will
also charge you a fee. If you are a Retail Client* and we give you Personal Advice, commission amounts will
be provided in any SoA or (where an SoA is not required to be provided) included on any relevant invoices.
For all other clients full commission information (including dollar amounts) can be provided on request. You
can choose to pay by any of the payment methods set out in the invoice. You are required to pay us within
14 days being our normal credit terms.
WHAT ABOUT REFUNDS OF PREMIUMS?
If you are entitled to a refund of premium from the insurer, CKA will refund the premium (less any
commission and broker fee charged) to you as soon as this is received from the insurer. CKA do not refund
brokerage or broker fees as these have been earned by us in placing and servicing the relevant policies,
irrespective of the period they have been in force.
When you pay CKA your premium it will be banked into our trust account. CKA retain the commission from
the premium you pay us and remit the balance to the insurer in accordance with our arrangements with the
insurer. We will earn interest on the premium while it is in our trust account or we may invest the premium
and earn a return. We will retain any interest or return on investment earned on the premium.
HOW ARE ANY COMMISSIONS, FEES OR OTHER BENEFITS CALCULATED FOR PROVIDING THE
FINANCIAL SERVICES?
CKA’s commission will be calculated based on the following formula: X = Y% x P. In this formula X = our
commission, Y% = the percentage commission paid to us by the insurer. Our commission varies between 0%
and 25%. P = the amount you pay for any insurance policy (less any government fees or charges included in
that amount). Any fees that we charge you will be dependent upon the time, complexity and nature of the
insurance involved. We do not often pay any commissions, fees or benefits to others who refer you to us or
refer us to an insurer. If we do, we will pay commissions to those people out of our commission or fees (not
in addition to those amounts). CKA employees are remunerated by way of an annual salary. Based on the
performance of the employee over the year, they may be entitled to a bonus. If we give you personal advice,
we will inform you of any fees, commission or other payments we, our associates or anyone referring you to
us (or us to any insurer) will receive in relation to the policies that are the subject of the advice.
DO YOU HAVE ANY RELATIONSHIPS OR ASSOCIATIONS WITH THE INSURERS WHO ISSUE THE
INSURANCE POLICIES OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL RELATIONSHIPS?
CKA participates in programs provided by some insurers under which we may obtain additional remuneration
by way of business support services and/or profit share or volume bonuses. If we have profit share
arrangements that apply to a product we recommend to you we will advise you of this at the time of making
the recommendation if the amount involved is material.

CKA is a shareholder of Steadfast Group Limited (Steadfast). Steadfast has exclusive arrangements with
some insurers under which Steadfast will receive between 0.5 - 1% commission for each product arranged
by us with those insurers. These payments are used to operate Steadfast. Depending on the operating costs
of Steadfast (including the costs of member services provided by Steadfast to us and other Steadfast
shareholders) and the amount of total business we place with the participating insurers in any financial year,
we may receive a proportion of that commission at the end of each financial year. As a shareholder of
Steadfast we have access to member services including model operating and compliance tools, procedures,
manuals and training, legal, technical, banking and recruitment advice and assistance, group insurance
arrangements, product comparison and placement support, claims support and group purchasing
arrangements. These member services are either funded by Steadfast, subsidised by Steadfast or available
exclusively to shareholders for a fee. You can obtain a copy of Steadfast’s FSG at www.steadfast.com.au.
Steadfast is a shareholder of Miramar Underwriting Agency Pty Limited (Miramar). As a shareholder,
Steadfast may receive dividends from Miramar. These amounts will indirectly contribute towards the benefits
we receive from Steadfast.
Steadfast has a shareholding in Macquarie Premium Funding. If we arrange premium funding with
Macquarie Premium Funding for you, under its agreement with Macquarie Premium Funding, Steadfast will
receive 0.5% of your insurance premium (including government fees or charges). As an equity shareholder
of Macquarie Premium Funding, Steadfast may also receive dividends from profits of Macquarie Premium
Funding. The amount of the Steadfast dividend is based on the share of profit attributable to funding
arranged by Steadfast shareholders. The payments (commission and dividends) that Steadfast receives
from Macquarie Premium Funding are used to operate Steadfast. Depending on the operating costs of
Steadfast and the amount of total business we place with Macquarie Premium Funding in any financial year,
we may receive a portion of those amounts at the end of each financial year.
If we arrange premium funding for you we may be paid a commission by the premium funder. We may also
charge you a fee (or both). The commission that we receive from the premium funder is usually calculated as
a percentage of your insurance premium (including government fees or charges). If you instruct us to
arrange or issue a product, this is when it becomes entitled to the commission. CKA’s commission rates for
premium funding range from 1% to 2% of funded premium. When we arrange premium funding for you, you
can ask us what commission rates we are paid for that funding arrangement compared to the other
arrangements that were available to you.
ELECTRONIC DELIVERY OF DISCLOSURE NOTICES
We may provide correspondence and disclosure notices (including FSG and PDS) to you electronically, via
email or links to websites etc. If you have provided your email address to us we will typically use that email
address for this correspondence and disclosure notices. Should you not wish to be sent disclosure
documents electronically, please advise us and we will update our records accordingly.

complaint is not satisfactorily resolved within 20 days, please contact Naser Kerimi on +61 8 9214 7400 or

WHAT ARRANGEMENTS DO YOU HAVE IN PLACE TO COMPENSATE CLIENTS FOR LOSSES?
CKA has a professional indemnity insurance policy (PI policy) in place. The PI policy covers us and our
employees for claims made against us and our employees by clients as a result of the conduct of us or our
employees in the provision of financial services. Our PI policy also covers us for claims relating to the
conduct of representatives who no longer work for us.
