2. WORKING METHOD


2.1 INSURANCE INTERMEDIARY SERVICES

As an insurance broker we specialise in advising on, offering and managing
insurance contracts. To do this, we carry out the preparatory work up to
conclusion of the insurance contracts and assist with their administration and
implementation, including submission of claims.

We work out the best solution for you on the basis of the information that you
give us. It is therefore important that you should inform us in detail
beforehand of all circumstances and requirements of which you are aware that may
reasonably be regarded as factors that will influence the proposal that we make
to you. We always provide advice on the basis of an impartial analysis. In other
words, our analysis is based on a sufficient number of insurance solutions that
are available in the insurance market and correspond to your wishes and needs.
By entering into the insurance contract you acknowledge that our advice takes
into account your wishes and needs and that you have been informed about the
scope and limitations of the insurance product that you have chosen.


2.2 INSURANCE CLASSES

Most of the companies within the Vanbreda Group can act as insurance brokers for
all the insurance classes summarised below. If one of the companies does not
have a licence for a specific class, this is noted for that class. Due to its
niche specialisation, Vanbreda Credinco (credit insurance) and Vanbreda Marine

More information on our services in general and the various types of policies
for which we act as intermediaries can be found under the “Solutions” tab at the
top of our website. This information is provided for information purposes only
and does not constitute a summary of all the current insurance terms and
conditions. As an insurance broker we work with a number of different companies.
Each company, however, has its own general and special policy terms and
conditions. To decide which insurance policy best corresponds to your needs, a
full study is needed. If necessary, we negotiate tailored policy terms with the
insurer.

2.3 Code of conduct

We respect codes of conduct, regardless of whether these are prescribed by law
or based on ethical codes for intermediaries. This also means that as a member
of the Professional Trade Association of Insurance Brokers (BVVM) we also
follow, in our conflict of interest policy and in our remuneration policy, the
rules and principles adopted at sectoral level by the professional association.

2.4 Fees

For services of insurance intermediation, we receive a fee from the insurance
company, which is part of the premium or a fee charged separately to the client.
We may receive a fee associated with our firm’s insurance portfolio at an
insurance company for which additional tasks are performed for the benefit of
the insurer.

2.5 Conflicts of interest

The conflict of interest policy is an integral part of the rules of conduct
within the Vanbreda Group. Should a conflict of interest arise, strict
procedures will take effect. If necessary, this will be communicated with you in
an appropriate manner.

2.6 Privacy policy

We respect your personal privacy in accordance with the current legislation.

You are not obliged to answer questions that we ask, but failure to answer those
questions may, depending on the situation, mean that we may be unable or may
refuse to enter into a precontractual or contractual relationship, to continue
such a relationship or to transact business requested by you or by a third party
for your benefit.

3. Sustainability policy

3.1 Policies on sustainability risks

In accordance with the Sustainable Financial Disclosure Regulation (SFDR), our
firm takes sustainability risks into account when advising on insurance policies
with an investment component, insofar as this information is made available by
the insurance company.

The SFDR has defined sustainability risk as ‘an environmental (E), social (S) or
governance (G) event or condition that, if it were to occur, could cause an
actual or potential significant negative effect on the value of the investment’.

In the context of advice for insurance policies with an investment component,
the remuneration policy applicable in our firm does not encourage excessive
risk-taking in relation to sustainability risks.

3.2 Adverse impacts on sustainability factors

The SFDR has defined sustainability factors as ‘environmental, social and
employment issues, respect for human rights, and combating corruption and
bribery’.

The legal framework regarding sustainability factors and adverse effects of
investment decisions on sustainability factors is currently incomplete, and will
therefore evolve in the coming months and years. Our firm will review this
policy as the legal framework is developed further.

3.3 Your sustainability preferences

When advising on insurance policies with an investment component our office will
ask for your sustainability preferences.

REPORTING UNETHICAL BEHAVIOUR (WHISTLEBLOWING PROCEDURE)

Vanbreda has implemented a whistleblowing procedure to report unethical
behaviour. Unethical behaviour can be reported by present, future and former
employees, all third parties with which Vanbreda has a business relationship,
and anyone who has knowledge of breaches in the area of financial services,
products and markets, even outside a work-related context.

Any such parties who notice improper, fraudulent or illegal behaviour or have
reason to suspect behaviour which they believe is in breach of the Rules of
conduct in insurance brokerage or any applicable law, regulation or provision,
are encouraged to report such behaviour as soon as possible.

Reports can be filed over a secure external portal. The report is passed on
anonymously to the Compliance team, which will assign the report to the team
that is in the best position to take further action.

This platform is not intended to answer complaints or questions about your
services and/or products with Vanbreda. For that purpose, please contact your
client team and/or broker, or use our contact form.

Any personal data that have been supplied will be used solely for the purpose of
investigating the report and taking action. If you wish to find out more about
how we use your personal data, please read our Privacy Statement. Employees can
also find more information in the Privacy Policy for Employees that is available
on Vanbreda’s intranet.
