CIFO/JFSC/FIU discussion panel on complaints handling good practices.

20/06/2024

Further to the update below about the “complaint” event on 18th June [see additional info below], I can offer an update as follows.

The Jersey CIFO, JFSC, and FIU participated in a discussion panel on “complaints handling good practices” and included the following topics.

  • JFSC = BANKING and compliant handling dear CEO letter and good practice
  • JFSC = INVESTMENT BUSINESS - Suitability of advice and vulnerable persons (VPs), Issues regarding Suitability historically, what does Suitability mean, and is it for everyone? What does “good” advice look like? Thematic on Suitability
  • FIU = “TIPPING OFF” and sharing information with the Channel Islands Financial Ombudsman (CIFO).
  • CIFO = Good Practices for Complaints Handling in the BANKING AND INVESTMENT SECTORS

As you will see, the event focused primarily on the BANKING AND INVESTMENT SECTORS. Although the FIU topic has some interest for MLRO/DMLROs as tipping off as a topic and risk is highly relevant.

Comsure has attached the slides (click here) if you want to review what was presented and discussed.
