Muss ich neben einem Zertifikat als Versicherungsvermittler noch andere Voraussetzungen erfüllen, um einen unabhängigen Versicherungsvergleich durchführen zu können?
Do I have to fulfill any other requirements in addition to a certificate as an insurance intermediary in order to be able to carry out an independent insurance comparison?
In order to be able to carry out an independent insurance comparison as an insurance intermediary, in addition to the VBV certificate, you also need an entry in the register of the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA. This registration is necessary for an independent intermediary, but requires that, in addition to the professional qualifications acquired through the VBV certificate or equivalent training, he or she must not have a criminal record that is incompatible with working as an intermediary and must not be in possession of any certificates of indebtedness. Professional liability insurance with cover of at least CHF 2 million or comparable financial security must also be in place.
