MiFID and interests of the client

by admin on 27/03/09 at 4:54 pm

MiFID means literally: “Markets in Financial Instruments Directive”.
It is a directive issued on November 2007 and is in the interests of the client investor.

The Code provides that the broker vendor package of investment is required to make the interests of the client to the detriment of their interests.
But how should perform this task?

Through two phases:

  • Customer profiling
  • the assessment

In profiling the broker out your profile, your income, your assets and any useful feature for the evaluation on investment.

Performed this step is the evaluation of the investment.
It is proposed that various types of investment specific to the customer and you valuta.Quest ’s may decide to leave the portfolio securities in the hands of the intermediary and trust with the guarantees of the rule will do our interests, or get advice and if in fact aware of the risk, the customer can accept ‘investment.

This legislation is not to say: “trust the bank because it is your interests.” Its value is something else. It is a protection to the client that does not absolve the bank from an investment offer that perhaps we detect unsuccessful for extraneous conditions (see Lehman Brothers bonds and loans or at variable rates).
So when you speak with the broker always ears wide open and try as much information as possible in person.
