Aiming at banks: An official from consumer advocacy group, Korea Finance Consumer Federation (KFCO), examines documents filed by bank customers to participate in a class action lawsuit against commercial banks, which are being investigated by anti-trust authorities over suspicions of manipulating the three-month certification of deposit (CD) rates. CD rates are applied to a wide range of financial transactions here, including loans to households and corporations. The KFCO said it has gathered more than 30,000 potential plaintiffs. / Yonhap |
