The committee agreed last month to launch an investigation into the practice by some insurance firms of charging current customers higher rates on renewal than the rates offered to new clients. “We would advise them to do so as they would for other services and utilities. Insurance Ireland understands from media reports that the Central Bank of Ireland intends to assess adherence to the Consumer Protection Code.

The assessment by the Central Bank has also been welcomed by Brokers Ireland, which represents over 1,250 broker firms.
