Why Unbiased Advice Matters

Term insurance pays financial advisors 7.5–10% first-year commission. LIC endowment plans pay 25–35% first-year commission. ULIPs pay 20–30% first-year commission. Most financial advisors recommend products based on commission, not client need. Subhankar Karmakar recommends term insurance first in every client meeting — even though it pays the lowest commission. This is the MDRT ethics standard: client-first advice. If you want to verify this claim: ask any financial advisor you meet to explain which products they do NOT recommend, and why. An unbiased advisor can answer this question instantly.
