Target Market Determinations
As part of the Product Design and Distribution Obligations (DDO), insurers and other issuers of financial products are now required to create written Target Market Determinations (TMDs) for all products which require a Product Disclosure Statement (PDS).
TMDs describe a class of Retail Clients that are the insurer's/ issuer's target market for the product and specify any conditions and restrictions on the distribution of retail products, any events and circumstances that would reasonably suggest the TMD is no longer appropriate and the reporting periods for when complaints about the product should be provided to the insurer/issuer. The TMD must be publicly available.
From 5th October 2021, insurers and insurance brokers, such as Lockton, must ensure that any Retail Client that is sold a product with a PDS, is within the target market prescribed by the insurer/ issuer of the policy.
The links below set out the TMDs created by insurers/issuers who underwrite the relevant products distributed by Lockton. If the insurer of your relevant policy is not on this list, please contact your broker or visit the insurer’s webpage.
