Definitions

to process the account opening request, including successful
completion of KYC, IPV/VIPV (where applicable), e-sign/e-mandates (if
applicable), and payment confirmation.

Account Opening Fees - General Rule
Unless expressly stated otherwise in writing, account opening fees are non-refundable as they cover initiation costs such as KYC/IPV, verification,
e-signing, data entry, and operational overheads, even if the account
is not ultimately activated.
-
Refunds in Specific Scenarios: FPPL may process refunds in the following limited cases:
-
Delay by FPPL after Complete Application: If FPPL does not complete the account opening/activation within 30 (thirty) days from receipt of a Complete Application, the client may request a refund of the account opening fee (if applicable and paid to FFPL), unless the delay is due to (i) incomplete/incorrect information, (ii)
failure of KYC/IPV/VIPV, (iii) client non-responsiveness, or (iv)
regulatory/third-party dependencies outside FPPL’s reasonable
control.
-
Duplicate Payment: If a client has paid the same fee multiple times for the same
request, FPPL will refund the duplicate amount(s) after verification.
-
Rejection / Inability to Proceed: Where FPPL is unable to proceed with account opening due to
regulatory restrictions, failed verification, or other compliance
reasons, FPPL may, at its discretion and to the extent permitted by
law, refund the fee net of non-recoverable third-party/verification charges (if any) already incurred for the client’s onboarding.
