| 英文摘要 |
With the rapid popularization of the Internet, various online communication channels have proliferated. Some enterprises have exploited these channels to profit from disseminating false and misleading content, thereby disrupting the solid operation of the market and undermining consumer trust. Furthermore, when such content involves financial products or services that are inherently characterized by high degrees of specialization and complexity, untruthful information can severely impact the decision-making and judgment of financial consumers, perplexing their understanding of the nature of these products or services. Accordingly, this study aims to examine the legal liability arising from financial institutions utilizing online communication channels, such as electronic communication operators and influencers for advertising, business solicitation, and promotional activities. It intends to clarify the allocation of responsibilities among electronic communication operators, influencers, and financial institutions. Through this analysis, the paper proposes recommendations that strike a balance among the rights and interests of enterprises, regulatory costs, and the protection of financial consumers. Furthermore, this study conducts a comparative analysis of the legal framework and regulatory measures governing financial promotions in the United Kingdom to provide concrete legislative suggestions for Taiwan. |
