COMPENSATION FUND
The Compensation Fund is an internal part of Crypto Finance Commission that deals with issues of restoring justice in situations where:
- a broker contradicts a decision of the Commission;
- a broker loses its membership status, as a result of which the Commission can no longer dictate decisions to it.
For this purpose, contributions from broker-members are used, which are transferred to a special account, strictly protected by a number of reliable measures. The contribution amount is 10%, and the money from the account is used exclusively for actions related to the correct functioning of the Fund and the fulfilment of its obligations.
All clients who have suffered as a result of the actions of a broker-member are eligible for compensation, where the Commission has issued a decision to that effect. If customers have suffered as a result of their own actions, they cannot pretend for money from the Fund. Compensation is only available to affected clients, not to all clients of the broker.
If the Commission makes a corresponding decision, affected clients of broker-members can count on €100,000. It is important to note that in the event that there are several victims of the actions of the same broker, and the total amount of compensation exceeds the maximum provided by the Fund, it is divided equally among all clients.
PAYOUT GUIDELINES
From the moment the Commission makes a decision to change the member’s status, the applicant must wait for compensation within 90 days.
If necessary, the Commission takes all possible steps to ensure that the applicant receives the funds, including checking him/her.
If there is more than one claimant and the total amount of compensation exceeds the potential maximum, the compensation will be divided equally between them.
The Commission is committed to guaranteeing that all compensation processes are conducted fairly, transparently, and within established timeframes. By working in partnership with applicants and following a clear regulatory path, the Commission ensures that all parties receive equitable outcomes based on the merits of each case. Our procedures are designed to deliver prompt resolutions without compromising on legal integrity or professional standards.
