Fair Dealing Guidelines
In April 2009, the Monetary Authority of Singapore issued Fair Dealing Guidelines aimed at promoting fair dealing by financial institutions when conducting business with customers.
The Guidelines are aimed at achieving the following five outcomes:
- Fair dealing is central to the Bank’s corporate culture
- Products and services are suitable for target customer segments
- Competent representatives who are able to provide customers with quality advice and appropriate recommendations
- Customers receive clear, relevant and timely information to make informed financial decisions
- Customer complaints are managed in an independent, effective and prompt manner
