The author of this research was asked by the Royal Commission to respond to the following questions:
How can conflicts of interest influence advisers?
What can the effects of the disclosure of conflicts of interest by advisers be on the behaviour of advisers, including the quality of the advice provided? Please identify any specific effects with respect to financial advisers.
What can the effects of the disclosure of conflicts of interest by advisers be on the behaviour of recipients of advice in acting on or considering the advice? Please identify any specific effects with respect to financial advice.
What other policy responses (apart from disclosure) to conflicts of interest on the part of advisers have you considered and what is the evidence as to the effectiveness of these other policy responses?
