Dont believe? Try it really
they are pro FIs and not even fair.
ReplyDeleteFIDREC must be pro consumers as it was set up with this in mind to redress the consumers and not another court where debates take place. As long a there is slight evidence that the consumers are aggrieved and the misconduct by FIs or their representatives FIDREC must rule in favour of the consumers.The compensation must be equitable again consumers' favour. consider their position.
FEDREC must be manned by financial professions, eg by qualified financial planners and investment advisers and lawyers.These people can see the case in financial and legal perspective better.
ALL INVESTORS TAKE NOTE
