What you should know about the NCCP
Revas uses a specialized lead management and loan processing system to keep you up to date with your client’s loan applications and referral fees payable.

✔ have no knowledge of any claim that may be pending against you;
✔ only engage in credit activity as a referrer that is incidental to another business you are carrying on;
✔ not engage in referring clients if you have been banned from providing credit advice;
✔ not conduct business by contacting people face to face from non-standard business premises (e.g. a stall in a shopping mall);
✔ not charge a fee to the client for the referral;
✔ only inform the client that we are able to arrange loans and leases, but not specify any particular product and not provide any recommendations or credit advice concerning loans or leases;
✔ obtain the consent of the client to pass on their name, contact details and a short description of the purpose for which the client may want the credit or lease; and
✔ pass the client’s contact details to us within five business days of informing the client that we are able to arrange loans and leases;
✔ if a natural person, have not been convicted within the last ten years of serious fraud and are not subject to any order under the Crimes (Criminal Organisations Control) Act 2009 (NSW) or the Serious and Organised Crime (Control) Act 2008 (SA).

You must advise clients about our services in a form similar to the following script:
“Our business has a partnership with a Mortgage Manager we know, Luc McKell or one of his staff. Would you mind if I passed your details to them so that they can contact you to find out about and assist with your finance requirements?
and, if the client responds affirmatively:
“I just need to let you know that Luc McKell are Licensed Mortgage Managers and because of that, I need to let you know that if you do use them, I will get paid a referral fee. When they contact you, they will check to make sure that you and I had this conversation before asking your permission to continue the conversation. You can decline their assistance at that point if you want to.”
