Vulnerable Customers Sample Clauses

Vulnerable Customers. A vulnerable customer is defined by the Consumer Protection Code as a natural person who;  has the capacity to make his or her own decisions but who, because of individual circumstances, may require assistance to do so (for example, hearing impaired or visually impaired persons); and/or  has limited capacity to make his or her own decisions and who requires assistance to do so (for example, persons with intellectual disabilities or mental health difficulties). It is Mount Street Groups practice policy to ensure that in the event of providing advice to a “vulnerable customer” that we acquire a certified copy of a Power of Attorney where one exists as well as the presence of at least one third party, ideally with financial fluency such as an Accountant or other family person with financial experience to be present at advisory meetings. We further require that contact with a “vulnerable customer” is copied to these third parties as a matter of practice.
