*Ts and Cs apply
On the 31st March 2011, the Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) introduced a program called Treating Customers Fairly (TCF) to financial institutions, TCF approach seeks to ensure that fair treatment of customers is embedded within the culture of financial institutions. TCF will use a combination of market conduct principles and explicit rules to drive the delivery of clear and measurable fairness outcomes
TCF aims to be a holistic and coordinated consumer protection regulatory framework that applies consistently across the financial services sector and is designed to address the specific conduct risks appropriate to the sector! The regulation on TCF ensures that fairness outcomes (as they apply to financial services customers) are demonstrably delivered by regulated financial firms. Financial services providers should always apply these principles keeping the customer in mind.
TCF is simply about three factors tied together in a causal loop with each activity impacting the next.
It is aimed at achieving six very specific desired outcomes that concern the customer. TCF requires regulated firms to be able to provide evidence or demonstrate these desired outcomes at every stage of the product life cycle. TCF principles must be driven by the firms’ culture and the way it does business as opposed to a set of defined rules.
Outcome 1: Customers are confident that fairness is central to our company culture.
Outcome 2: Customers are sold and enjoy products and services that are applicable to them and meet their needs.
Outcome 3: Customers receive clear information, that is relevent and that is easy to understand with a clear layout and timely.
Outcome 4: Customers receive suitable advice that takes their circumstances in to account.
Outcome 5: Customers have their expectations met through products and services that are up to standard and deliver what was promised.
Outcome 6: Customers do not face unreasonable post-sale barriers to change product, switch provider, submit claims and complaints.
Africa Direct Life and Investments acknowledges that the fair treatment of its clients and the provision of excellent service is central to its success and sustainability.
The purpose of this TCF Policy is to communicate how we aim to ensure that the above outcomes are embedded in our approach to dealing with our clients.
The policy applies to all Africa Direct Life employees and non-compliance will bear serious consequences.
The company acknowledges that the TCF initiative is not a Compliance function but rather a concept that is noticeable throughout the company’s operations. Therefore, its Board of Directors and Senior Management, in conjunction with the company’s Compliance function, has:
Our strategic plans and budgets must make allowance for TCF implications, with deliverables allocated to appropriate personnel. Business cases and company projects that directly impact on our clients will consider TCF implications. The company has existing structures and forums where TCF-type matters can be discussed and debated.
We have assigned our TCF monitoring structure and forums within our company. Africa Direct Life And Investments has appointed a TCF champion who reports to anagment and is responsible for:
Our Recruitment Policy and related processes provide the company with relevant human resources that are able to deliver on the company’s TCF objectives. Personnel who have been allocated TCF deliverables must undergo the necessary training.
Africa Direct Life and Investment has developed appropriate management information systems and controls that allows it to measure TCF effectiveness, analyse and act on findings, monitor and respond to TCF-related regulatory developments and improve TCF outcomes for its clients.
Our company has developed processes that ensure the fair treatment of clients in terms of, but not limited to:
Within the context of the company operating in a market segment that contains many technical and complex information, save disclosing information that will reduce the company’s competitive advantage, any product information provided to our clients is to the company’s best ability, accurate, timeous, regular, clear, appropriate and does not contain hidden conditions. The company has developed approval processes for the distribution of all its product information with sign-off at an appropriate level of authority.
The company has developed processes for the on-going monitoring of environmental, economic and regulatory developments that could impact on the extent to which the company’s products will meet its clients’ reasonable expectations. Similarly, processes and controls have been put in place to protect the confidentiality of all customer information. The company’s service standards are documented in client mandates.
Africa Direct Life and investments does not impose unfair post-sale or product-switching barriers on its clients. We responds in a timely manner to our clients and prospective clients questions and queries, and address any issues or concerns promptly. All customer complaints are dealt with and escalated as appropriate and as required by us in order to meet our obligations to our clients and our regulator.
TCF is embedded in the statutes that are regulated by the FSCA, Africa Direct Life require to comply with the TCF Outcomes and have them embedded within the day to day business activities as failure will result in administration fines.

The Policy is aimed at managing conflict of interest that exists or has a potential to exist in a specific transaction that is entered into or may be entered into with a client. Managing conflict of interest could be in a way of mitigating it where it exists and disclosing it to a client.
The Policy applies on transactions entered into or may be entered into between Financial Services Providers (“FSP”) or by representatives of a FSP on behalf of the FSP.

Where there is actual or potential conflict of interest between Africa Direct and a client or a Representative and a client, necessary disclosures of this fact will be made to the client, which will include measures that will be taken to manage the conflict. Such disclosure will be made prior to the conclusion of the transaction in order to enable the client to make an informed decision with regard to entering or not entering into a transaction.
In general, representatives when contacting a client are expected to test whether the purported transaction will not amount to a conflict of interest by testing whether the service to be rendered to the client will be in the best interest of the client or if it meets the needs of the client and how much incentive will they receive should the service be rendered etc.
Representatives are required to report to the Key Individual where conflict of interest exist on a specific transaction, the KI together with the Compliance Officer will look at surrounding circumstances to come up with measures that will assist with avoiding conflict of interest. These will be disclosed to the client when advising the client about the existence of the Conflict of Interest. Where Conflict of Interest cannot be avoided, measures to mitigate such conflict will differ from one case to another and this will be disclosed to the client.
Where conflict of interest exists or might exist, representatives are required to disclosed to the client its nature and the manner in which it will be managed. Representatives are required to advise the Key Individual about existence of conflict of interest or of the potential existence of such conflict.
Key individuals and Management are responsible to ensure that conflict of interest is disclosed to client where it exists or where there is a potential of such conflict.
Once reported, the transaction will be entered into the Conflict of Interest Management Register which will be kept by the key individual.
When Africa Direct or Representative receives Immaterial Financial Interest (‘IFI”), they must inform the compliance officer in writing about the IFI. In the report, they must include the name of the FSP and the FSP number of the FSP who has offered the IFI, date of receipt and the value of the IFI.
