The recent global financial crisis has made the financial consumer protection as one of the key issues attracting public attention. There are several ways to handle this issue, as one of which, financial consumers can ask a reliable ADR institution for financial dispute settlement. This system is a handy way for financial consumers who are relatively less powerful, to conciliate disputes with less cost than through lawsuits or arbitration.
As an example, the Financial Ombudsman Service in the UK, a result of integrating all the ombudsman systems run by each business to basically protect financial consumers, secures practical effectiveness in that it obtains independence from any party due to having been founded as a third party complaint handling institution; ? If accepted by the complainant, the Ombudsman"s decision is binding on the consumer and the firm and is final; and it is granted a powerful investigation right to collect evidence and information related to the case.
Contrary to such a structure, South Korea has a multiple number of administrative and private ADR institutions to resolve financial disputes, tarnishing the consistency and reliability of the dispute settlement results.. The Financial Supervisory Service which is largely in charge of financial conflicts lacks independence and fairness. Furthermore, structurally the complainant as well as the respondent is able to deny the dispute conciliation result by filing a lawsuit, definitely damaging the effectiveness of the decision.
For enhancing the effectiveness of financial ADR system in South Korea, the improvements should be explored as follows; i) several schemes of settling financial disputes should be integrated into a single channel, ii) An independent financial ADR institution should be established, iii) the dispute conciliation process should be an obligation before filing a lawsuit and should be considered by the current Korean legal system, iv) the ADR’s decision accepted by the consumer should be legally binding on the financial company, and v) there should be a preventive measure against the complainant"s abuse of the system.
In addition to possible improvements mentioned above, the key issue to vitalize the financial ADR system in Korea is to secure trust and reliability of the outcome produced by the ADR from all the stakeholders such as financial institutions and consumers. To this end, professional manpower should be reinforced first, and the way to enhance their job performance should be prepared. And a continuous and consistent effort should be made to practically acquire the transparency and accessibility of the dispute resolution scheme.
