Regulatory bodies and other resources

Government regulators provide alternative sources of consumer information and have offices that handle specific complaints. Depending on your issue, the federal government and provinces have their own regulatory body that can be contacted.

Financial Consumer Agency of Canada

The Financial Consumer Agency of Canada (FCAC) supervises all federally regulated financial institutions to ensure that they comply with federal consumer protection provisions. It also educates consumers and monitors industry codes of conduct and public commitments designed to protect consumer interests.

These consumer protection provisions cover a variety of operating practices that directly affect our clients. For example, financial institutions are required by law to provide consumers with information about their fees, interest rates and complaint-handling procedures.

Specific complaints made in writing will be assessed by the FCAC on a case-by-case basis to determine whether a federal consumer protection issue exists, and if so, what necessary action should be taken.

Regulatory complaints should be submitted in writing:

Financial Consumer Agency of Canada
