Standards for banks

When you decide to invest in schemes or financial products offered by your bank such as life insurance, mortgage loans and equity release, you will often be reliant on the expertise and experience of the financial institution to ensure that you have the best chance of increasing your financial returns.

There are examples of clients who have lost out financially as a result of entering into financial products or schemes.

This may be a result of the bank or financial institution’s negligence where it:

Fails to evaluate and take account of your financial position and needs.
Fails to properly warn you of possible risks.
Misrepresents the facts surrounding your investment.

Where you have incurred a financial loss as a result of your bank or financial institution offering you negligent advice or a substandard product, contact the specialist professional negligence solicitors at Jones Whyte.
