How to make a complaint

If Fisher Investment Europe (FIE) has not provided you with the standard of service you expect, or if we have made a mistake, we would like to know about it so we can put things right as quickly as possible.

This procedure explains how you can make a complaint about FIE , or any of its employees, and our procedure for dealing with complaints.

If you have a complaint please contact us by telephone, email or post.

To help us resolve your complaint as quickly as possible, please provide us with the following information when you make your complaint:

• Your full name, home address and email address
• A clear description of your concern or complaint
• If your complaint is about a person the name of that person and their job title ( if known)
• Details of what you would like us to do put the matter right
• Your telephone or mobile number if we need to discuss your complaint with you

What we will do when we receive your complaint

• We will try to resolve your complaint as quickly as possible.
• If we can resolve your complaint within three business days, and you confirm your acceptance of how your complaint has been resolved, we may be able to conclude your complaint by writing to you with a summary of our findings and conclusion.
• For all other complaints we will acknowledge your complaint in writing and begin an investigation looking at the specific concerns you have raised.
• We will try to complete our investigation within 8 weeks of receiving your complaint and provide you with a final written response explaining the outcome of our investigation.
• Please bear in mind that some complaints are complicated and require more time to investigate. If we cannot complete our investigation within 8 weeks we will send you an update letter explaining why, and what progress we have made. Where possible we will indicate when we hope to be able to complete our investigation.
• Our final written response will confirm if your complaint has been upheld or rejected, how we have made that decision and what we will do if we need to take action to put things right for you.
