12 4. Key challenges and opportunities : Regional and Global Levels Emergence of ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) in Enhancing cross-border trade and services and accelerating competition in financial system result in higher demand for services and more complex financial products Challenges : - Consumers need to be well equipped with financial knowledge and be able to make informed decision - Businesses, especially SMEs, need to understand financial products that would serve their needs. Differences in Consumer protection mechanisms in various countries - Consumer protection mechanisms in each country vary given unique characteristics of economic and financial system Challenges : - How to harmonize the regulations to the international standard while each country have to take into accounts stage of economic and regulatory development as well as levels of consumer sophistication? - It is necessary to ensure that regulatory framework for consumer protection remains relevant and dynamic Opportunity regarding both issues : Countries may learn from and share resources & experience with one another and adapt to use in their countries as appropriate 12
13 4. Key challenges and opportunities: National Level Enhancing Cooperation among Related Authorities and Agencies Consumer protection and education have been tasked of several authorities and agencies, ranging from financial regulatory authorities, financial service providers to NGOs. Challenges : For this worthwhile mission to be accomplished, relevant organizations both public and private sector have to cooperate in a manner that would bring unity, effective resource allocations and focus on the same direction at the same time avoid any overlapping. Note: As for Thailand, the Financial Literacy Committee chaired by the Permanent Secretary of Ministry of Finance has been appointed to set the country s financial education plans and monitor the developments. 13
14 4. Key challenges and opportunities: Financial Service Providers Harmonization between prudence, competition and consumer protection Challenges : - Appropriate balance between providing adequate safety for consumer V.S. promoting competition and financial innovation must be sought (without imposing excessive regulatory costs and burdens on FIs and consumers) - It is important to encourage financial service providers to realize the importance of fair business conduct (both to consumers and shareholders) Opportunity : Financial service providers can promote consumer protection through financial education as part of their CSR. This may also help increase a number of customers who look for ethical financial service providers. Disclosure of Information Financial service providers should provide adequate and unbiased information, such all returns and risks associated with their products, and offer appropriate products to customers. In addition, disclosure of information will be beneficial to customers when it is thoroughly understood. Challenge : How to balance between amount of information adequate to make informed decision and clear, concise and necessary information has to be identified? 14
15 4. Key Challenges and Opportunities: Individual Level Customers own responsibilities - Knowing what should be done does not always lead to changes in behavior. Challenge : Factors that affect the individuals behaviors and decision making need to be identified. Examples may be education level, previous experience, financial situation and attitudes. Opportunities : - One-to-one training programs such as helping employees in factories solve their debt problems, though criticized as being labor intensive, have proved successful. This group of survivors may also be multipliers to lend a hand to the others. - Success stories and where to get help should be promoted through several channels to indirectly encourage people to change behavior. 15
