澳大利亚监管机构正在调查基金经理Paul Chiodo向咖啡馆老板Rashid Alshakshir的营销公司Bespoke Marketing支付的3500万美元是否应该为Chiodo陷入困境的盾牌主基金的投资者收回. Australian regulators are investigating whether $35 million paid by fund manager Paul Chiodo to café owner Rashid Alshakshir's marketing firm, Bespoke Marketing, should be recovered for investors in Chiodo's troubled Shield Master Fund. 虽然澳大利亚禁止为产品建议向财务顾问支付佣金,但允许销售付款。 While commission payments to financial advisers for product recommendations are banned in Australia, marketing payments are allowed. Chiodo坚持认为,这些付款是合法和普通的,但ACIC正在审查这种关系,以确保不存在不适当的财务建议或有冲突的报酬。 Chiodo maintains the payments were legitimate and commonplace, but ASIC is examining the relationship to ensure there was no improper financial advice or conflicted remuneration involved.
