What is a complaint?

Axi defines a complaint as “an expression of dissatisfaction made to us by clients, related to our trading products or services, staff or our handling of a complaint, where a response or resolution is explicitly or implicitly expected or legally required”, which is derived from Australian Standard AS/NZS 10002:2014 Guidelines for complaint management in organizations (“AS/NZS 10002:2014”) and ASIC RG271.

Investigation

Once we have received your complaint, we will send you a complaint acknowledgement. We will then assess and investigate your case and provide you a response.

Our staff will discuss the issue with you and will complete an investigation. Investigation result will be reviewed and approved by our Compliance Officer before releasing to you.

Whilst our internal procedures generally allow us up to 60 calendar days to deal with a complaint.

If we are unable to resolve the complaint within 60 calendar days we will:

• inform you of the reasons for the delay;
• provide you with updates on the progress of the complaint;
• specify a date when a decision can be reasonably expected;
• remind you of your right to complain to External Dispute Resolution body; and
• provide you with the contact detail of the External Dispute Resolution body.

External Dispute Resolution

If there are circumstances where the complaint has been fully considered under Axi’s internal complaints procedure and has not been resolved to your satisfaction, you have the option of having the complaint heard by External Dispute Resolution bodies– the Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA) and the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA)

AFCA is an independent external dispute resolution scheme approved by Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) who will make a determination after reviewing your complaint and all relevant issues, for example any relevant laws.

DFSA is the independent regulator of financial services conducted in or from the DIFC, a purpose-built financial free zone in Dubai, UAE. Depends on the types of complaints, the DFSA might consider your case.

You can contact AFCA or the DFSA in the following manner:
