How much can CP regulation substitute for inadequate consumer knowledge/behavior?

1. To a great extent – better to fix the provider and product than to have to educate the consumer

2. Equally important – what’s the point of rules if people don’t understand them?

3. To a lesser extent - You must build consumers’ financial capability before they start taking up and using new products
