Samba adheres to the G20 High-Level Principles on Financial Consumer Protection
Equitable and fair treatment
Banks should deal fairly and honestly with consumers at all stages of their relationship, so that it is an integral part of the culture of a bank. Care should also be made and special attention given to the needs of vulnerable persons and groups.
Disclosure and transparency
Banks should provide up to date information about products and services to consumers. This information should be easily accessible, clear, simple to understand, accurate, not misleading and include any potential risks for the consumer. It should include the rights and responsibilities of each party, including the mechanism for either party to end the banking relationship, as well as details of fees, pricing and any potential penalties that the consumer may incur.
Financial education and awareness
Banks should develop programmes and appropriate mechanisms to help existing and future consumers develop the knowledge, skills and confidence to appropriately understand risks, including financial risks and opportunities, make informed choices, know where to go for assistance when they need it.
Behavior and work ethic
Banks should work in a professional manner for the benefit of clients during their relationship, where a bank is primarily responsible for the protection of the financial interests of the client.
Protection against fraud
Banks should protect and monitor consumer deposits and savings and other similar financial assets through the development of control systems with a high level of efficiency and effectiveness to reduce fraud, embezzlement or misuse.
Protection of privacy
Consumers' financial and personal information should be protected through appropriate control and protection mechanisms. These mechanisms should define the purposes for which the data may be collected, processed, held, used and disclosed (especially to third parties).
Complaints handling
Consumers should have access to adequate complaints handling mechanisms that are accessible, affordable, independent, fair, accountable, timely and efficient and based on SAMA rules.
Competition
Consumers should be able to search, compare and where appropriate, switch between products, services and providers easily and clearly at a reasonable cost.
Third parties
Banks and their authorized agents should have as an objective, to work in the best interest of their consumers and be responsible for upholding financial consumer protection. Banks should also be responsible and accountable for the actions of their authorized agents.
Conflict of interest
Banks should have a written policy on conflict of interest, and ensure that this policy will help to detect potential conflicts of interest. When the possibility of a conflict of interest arises between the bank and the third party , this should be disclosed to the consumer.
