After meeting with his advisor Monica, Tom agrees to apply for a $50,000 whole life insurance policy. Monica tells him that the monthly premium will be $40 per month. Monica is advised by underwriting that Tom qualifies for an additional $10,000 critical illness rider, and that the new premium would be $50 per month. Monica advises underwriting that Tom accepts the additional coverage without speaking with him first, because it is such a good deal and great coverage, he won’t mind. When Tom finds out what she has accepted on his behalf, without his knowledge, he is upset and wants to lodge a complaint to someone other than the insurance company and Monica; he wants to speak with an independent third party. He finds the contact information for the local regulatory authority. What are some of the responsibilities the regulatory authority has in protecting clients like Tom?
