Vulnerable Clients Sample Clauses

Vulnerable Clients. The Consumer Duty regime introduces obligations regarding retail customers having certain vulnerability characteristics. A vulnerable client is, but not limited to, someone who, due to their personal circumstances, may be susceptible to harm in the absence of appropriate levels of care designed to cater for such vulnerabilities. Affiliates should take into consideration the Company’s negative target market which includes retail consumers with certain vulnerability characteristics and ensure that the xxxxxxx.xxx products and services are not promoted to such retail consumers to the extent the Affiliate is aware of such characteristics. It is important to understand that vulnerability is as a spectrum of risk and potential harm affecting susceptible Clients. Evidently, not all Clients with characteristics of vulnerability are vulnerable and subject to harm. However, Clients with vulnerable characteristics may be more likely to have further or distinctive needs which shall be identified and attended to with care to ensure fair treatment and prevention of potential undue harm.

However, admitting vulnerability or seeking help can sometimes feel hard. If this is something you would like to discuss with your adviser please ask for a copy of our Vulnerable Client Guide. This guide is designed to help explain vulnerability and the ways in which we might be able to support you. If you feel any of the circumstances in the brochure apply to you, please talk to us.
