Insurance businesses need to “embrace” regulation or face tough consequences if they continue their current “amateurish” practices. Those are among the stark warnings from CEO Escott, who has had a closer relationship than many will ever have with the new regulator, following the business's record £10.5m mis-selling fine, subsequent campaign to compensate over seven million customers and return to some kind of stability from what he describes as "the zone of insolvency". Escott, who is also a non-executive of insurance broker Clear, believes the troubles that befell card protection specialist CPP are likely to be a case study for some years, adding: "There are a lot of lessons to be learnt from [the CPP story] because I think the industry is still in catch-up mode [in terms of regulation], and there are a lot of people still below the radar who might think ‘It will never happen to us'." "The one thing CPP has done for me is give me an insight into what the regulator is thinking and what is coming. It is here to stay, and I would say Clear is one of the better prepared brokers [in understanding regulation]. But you realise that as a sector, [broking] is quite amateur at it." "I do think that in CPP there was a highly incentivised culture that forced its sales people to hit targets at the compromise of everything else. Whereas if you take a lot of businesses like Clear, they have always been about trying to do the right thing," Escott adds. "So although it is just beginning to get to grips with regulation and compliance, [Clear] has a good starting point of doing things the right way. Whereas CPP started off saying ‘how do we optimise profit and revenue?' and not worrying about the long-term view." With a new management team in place, including the likes of ex-NIG and Davies boss Charles Crawford as COO, Escott notes the company is already on a journey to redress this historic culture - and he says significant progress is being made. "CPP smells, looks and feels completely different today. But I think it was initially difficult for a business that had long been detached from the heart of the insurance industry to comprehend what [good practice] was. The big changer was that we needed to get people in who knew what the standards needed to be. It is far easier to bring people in who have broad experience of the insurance industry and have credibility to set the standard. But it takes time," he explains. "And that is why I think the regulator has a challenge on its hands. A business needs to accept where it needs to be, and then if you have a culture that has been skewed down one route [such as sales], it is a big job [to change that]. But it starts at the top, which is why the regulator has a big thing about approved persons and non-executives.
Agreed and phoenix are no mugs, I have personal experience with them and they will only go in if they can come out with a profit. I am not sure they would have gone bust as they said they might have to close the doors but did say they would have to. I think there was a bit of we are doing this no matter what you say as the deal between the big holders was already done. A lot of the cash will be used to bring down loans, a new computer system and world wide market development rather than to pay wages, etc. With no ability to sell in the uk until 2016 they are breaking even which is a good point to remember. And if the extra shares are not traded then the limited quantity we all hold will increase the overall share price if there are more buyers than sellers.
