Распространение действия закона «О защите прав потребителей» на сферу брокерской деятельности определяет соответствующие стандарты оказания инвестиционных и брокерских услуг. Таким образом, предоставление услуги доступа на биржевой рынок, совершения сделок с различными финансовыми активами должно приводить к увеличению полезности для клиента, а не к потере его капитала. Вместе с тем одна из особенностей оказания инвестиционных услуг состоит в том, что ответственность за выбор инвестиционных инструментов, уровень принимаемого риска лежит не на компании, а на ее клиентах, которые в большинстве своем не осведомлены обо всех нюансах данной деятельности и практически не защищены от вероятности потери капитала.
Вопрос развития финансового рынка России, в частности инвестиционного сегмента, требует комплексного подхода, который должен основываться на большей защищенности прав инвесторов, с одной стороны, а также на формировании культуры инвестирования и соответствующей базы знаний — с другой.
