Consumer protection rules are regulations designed to safeguard individuals using financial products and services from unfair practices. These legal and regulatory provisions aim to shield individual users from deceptive, fraudulent, or abusive actions by service providers in financial markets. They establish standards for transparency, disclosure, fair advertising, and complaint resolution mechanisms. Such rules typically address issues like data privacy, asset security, and equitable access to financial offerings.
