Consumer on Capital Market
Abstract
The article is devoted to the legal aspects of treating investors (natural persons) as consumers. In financial institutions, this raises concerns about the possibility of courts granting investors the protection that is appropriate for consumers, whereas investor protection is addressed by separate legislation and it is this legislation that should primarily be applied to protect this group of financial participants. Investment in the capital market entails a risk of loss that cannot be entirely removed or transferred to financial institutions. Investor protection is based primarily on providing investors with information about their intended investments, leaving it up to them to decide on the risks involved.
