The study endorsed that</em><em> in order to ensure better transparency to the authority by holders of the actions taken to contact specific clients prior to surrendering assets to the UFAA, the Unclaimed Financial Authority (UFAA) should create robust systems. Additionally, the UFAA should put up a system for the prudent handling of unclaimed financial assets across all industries. Additionally, the authority has to implement consistent accounting and reporting standards for these assets across all industries and run effective public education and financial literacy initiatives.</em><em> Laws and regulations on such assets should be reviewed to revise the charges incurred in the claiming process.</em></p>2025-02-24T18:27:10-06:00##submission.copyrightStatement##
