Reflections about the right to choose freely among products and services: a brief case study1 / Reflexiones en torno al derecho a elegir libremente entre productos y servicios: un breve análisis casuísticoFuentes Veliz, Juan Andrés, Sánchez Velásquez, David 10 April 2018 (has links)
In Peru, the right to choose freely among products and services has not been developed in extent, right contained in the Code of Protection and Defense of the Consumer. In that order of ideas, this right is not alleged in courts to be enforced due its content is not well known. Therefore, our research has the purpose of analyzing common situations, where the right to choose freely among products and services is discussed with the objective to limiting its scope clear and evenly, which would greatly contribute to its compliance. / En el Perú, no se han desarrollado en extenso los alcances del derecho a elegir, libremente, entre productos y servicios, consagrado, actualmente, en el artículo 1º, inciso 1, literal f ) del Código de Protección y Defensa del Consumidor. En ese sentido, podemos manifestar que este derecho no se hace respetar a plenitud por parte de los consumidores, en la medida que su real contenido no es conocido. Por ende, en este breve artículo queremos pasar revista a aquellas situaciones de la vida cotidiana, en las cuales el respeto al derecho a elegir está en discusión, con el fin de que aplicando, básicamente, el método deductivo se clarifiquen los alcances del mismo, y situaciones que hoy no son pasibles de cumplimiento por parte de los proveedores, lo sean.

Aplicabilidade do princípio constitucional da proteção do consumidor aos contratos eletrônicos. / Applicability of the constitutional principle of consumer protection over the electronic contracts.Carneiro, Ligia Maria Cavalcante 08 August 2008 (has links)
The applicability of the constitutional principle of consumer protection is indicated here as the
main solution to fill the legal gap concerning the new electronic contracts. From an unknown
and irrelevant precept in the consumption relationships developed during the Liberal State, to
a leading factor for the economical activity of the Social and Constitutional State of Right, the
constitutional principle of consumer protection walked a long hard path before being
reconized and valued, bringing to the extent of consumption relationships the desired
placement of a vulnerable consumer in the same level as the businesses that sell goods and
services, through protective norms. According to this, The Federal Constitution of 1988 took
the consumer protection as one of its icons, including it in the fundamental rights and
guarantees and, like one of them, a self-aplicable right, with immediate normative power, in
spite of the determination of preparation of the Protection Code, which made it stronger,
rulling all developed peculiarities in the consumption relationships so far. With the
globalization and one of its most interesting features, the internet, a new stage in the
consumption relationships began, as well in the international business: The e-commerce was
launched, what, in a chaotic but self-organized way, developed a new comfortable layout for
the comsumption relationships, when by a simple mouse click, it is possible to reach any kind
of goods or services, from national or international businesses, through their virtual shops.
However, although it is just a new way of bringing into effect traditional legal contracts, since
they are made through electronic support, a lot of doubts and questions related to the
regulation of their main aspects have been coming up, for there is not a whole effective
national norm, which has been restricting the practice of consumption relationships due to the
remaining suspicion about the way they are done. In this case, it is summoned the normative
power of the constitucional principle of consumer protection, displayed in the Federal
Constitution of 1988, and, as well, in the other Constitutions of all democratic countries,
which values highly the consumer citizen protection and their dignity. Due to the nonexistence,
and even the difficulties in preparing a harmonic norm which reaches the national
and international e-commerce, it is vented the invocation of this normative power as
guidelines for solving the increasing demand coming around the Judicial Power related to this
new contract perspective through the matrix. / A aplicabilidade do princípio constitucional de proteção do consumidor é apontada aqui como
a principal saída para a solução da lacuna legislativa existente, no que tange aos novos
contratos eletrônicos. De preceito desconhecido e irrelevante nas relações de consumo
desenvolvidas durante o Estado Liberal, a vetor da atividade econômica do Estado Social e
Constitucional de Direito, o princípio constitucional da proteção do consumidor teve que
trilhar um árduo e longo caminho até ser reconhecido e valorado, trazendo para o âmbito das
relações de consumo a realização da almejada colocação do consumidor vulnerável em um
nível de paridade com os fornecedores de bens e serviços, através de normas protetivas
daqueles. Nesse sentido, a Constituição Federal de 1988 abraçou a proteção do consumidor
como um de seus ícones, consagrando-a dentre os direitos e garantias fundamentais e, como
tal, direito auto-aplicável, com força normativa imediata, inobstante a determinação de
elaboração de um Código de Proteção que o fortaleceu, regulando todas as particularidades
das relações de consumo desenvolvidas até então. Eis que com a globalização e sua faceta
mais interessante, a internet, deu-se início a uma nova fase nas relações de consumo, bem
como no comércio internacional: Despontou o e-commerce, que de uma forma caótica, mas ao
mesmo tempo auto-organizada, impulsionou as relações de consumo em um formato novo,
cômodo e confortável, através do qual, com simples toques no mouse, pode-se adquirir bens e
serviços de fornecedores nacionais ou estrangeiros, através de suas lojas virtuais. Todavia,
apesar de ser apenas uma nova forma de se efetivar os tradicionais negócios jurídicos, já que
se perfazem através de suporte eletrônico, muitas dúvidas e questões vêm surgindo quanto à
regulação de seus principais aspectos, que ainda não foram agraciados a nível nacional com
uma normativa eficaz e plena, fato que vem restringindo o exercício pleno das relações de
consumo em linha, máxime em face da persistente desconfiança quanto ao meio. Neste
sentido, eis que se convoca a força normativa do princípio constitucional da proteção do
consumidor, presente na Carta de 1988, assim como nas Constituições dos demais países
democráticos que prezam pela proteção do consumidor cidadão em sua dignidade. De modo
que diante da inexistência, e mesmo da dificuldade de elaboração de uma normativa
harmônica que alcance o comércio eletrônico interno e o internacional, pugna-se aqui pela
invocação desta força normativa como norte para a solução das demandas que começam a
bater às portas do Judiciário em torno desta nova perspectiva de formulação contratual através
da matrix.

Determinants of investments : a comparative study of RSA Retail Savings Bonds and stokvelKgomo, Simon Llifie 06 1900 (has links)
This research established the determinants of the investment choices between the RSA Government Retail Bonds and the stokvel by salaried individuals. The research carried out a comparative analysis between the two investment instruments. The main data was drawn from FinMark for the period 2011 to 2015. The research used a combination of data tables and graphs to analyse frequency (distribution) of use in each of the investment choices. The research used Pearson’s Chi square and Fishers’ t-test to determine the distribution, independence and Cramer’s V coefficient was applied to establish the correlation between the investment choices and the demographic under review. The outcome of the research indicated that more than risk or return inherent in the investment instruments under review, social, psychological and cultural disposition towards these investment instruments played a significant part in influencing the investment choices under review. Furthermore, lower educated individuals at low salary levels had the highest usage in stokvel and the highly educated at the higher level of education opted to invest in the RSA Government Retail Bonds. There was a very low usage in both the investment instruments by the ‘no formal education’ and primary education levels. Pearson’s Chi square and Fishers’ exact tests indicated that, race, education, location and salary levels can be used to explain the differences in investment choices between the RSA Government Retail Bonds and stokvel. According to these tests, age was statistically insignificant to explain the effects of the demographics under review on making investment choices. The results indicate that racial, educational, salary and location differences need to be properly factored into the policy development in so far as investment and savings are concerned. / Finance, Risk Management and Banking / M.

Aspects of banker liability : disclosure and other duties of bankers towards customers and suretiesVan Rensburg, Hermanus Lourens Jansen 01 January 2002 (has links)
Suretyships given in favour of banks are being challenged in the courts on the basis of equitable doctrines of unconscionable conduct, undue influence, or statutory provisions dealing with unfair conduct or unfair contract terms.
This thesis is an enquiry into a bank's duties of disclosure or advice to an intending surety. Such an investigation also necessitates a study of the relationship between banker and customer, as the surety is quite often a customer of the bank as well, and, as a surety's obligation to the bank is an accessory obligation, the obligation is dependent on a valid principal obligation between the bank and the principal debtor - the customer.
The face of modern banking has, however, changed dramatically and most major banks have become multi-functional. As a result, the banker-customer relationship may often be seen as a fiduciary relationship. A major problem brought about my multi-functioning banks is that of conflicts of interest between the bank and its customer. Furthermore, the banker-customer relationship is providing much more scope for lender liability than in the past.
Various factors are currently having an impact on the law of contract, and this is expected to affect the legal policy makers in their assessments of whether a duty of disclosure of material facts exits or not.
A surety has long been a favoured debtor in the eyes of the law, and the courts have developed a plethora of technical principles on which a surety can be relieved of his obligation. The escape routes of the surety, especially if he is a consumer as well, on the new grounds of public policy, unconscionability, good faith or unreasonableness, are growing. The results of these trends is the expected demise of suretyship as an acceptable, cheap form of debt security in the banking sector. / Jurisprudence / LL.D.
