Members shall maintain internal procedures and controls to identify and manage any potential conflicts, so that at all times the interest of the client are protected.
- Members shall clearly state the cost of all services and fees before the client becomes liable to pay them. Where members do not know the cost in advance they will clearly state how they will be calculated.
