The Consumer Ombudsman at the FBF

The Consumer Ombudsman at the Fédération Bancaire Française (FBF – French Banking Federation) is competent for disputes relating to services provided and contracts concluded in the field of banking operations (e.g. management of deposit accounts, credit operations, payment services etc.), investment services, financial instruments and savings products, as well as the marketing of insurance contracts.

The FBF Ombudsman will reply directly to you within 90 (ninety) days from the date on which she/he receives all the documents on which the request is based. In the event of a complex dispute, this period may be extended. The FBF Ombudsman will formulate a reasoned position and submit it to both parties for approval.

The FBF Ombudsman can be contacted on the following website: www.lemediateur.fbf.fr or by mail at:

Le Médiateur de la Fédération Bancaire Française
CS 151
75422 Paris CEDEX 09

 

The Ombudsman of the AMF

The Ombudsman of the Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF - French Financial Markets Authority) is also competent for disputes relating to investment services, financial instruments and financial savings products.

For this type of dispute, as a consumer customer, you have therefore a choice between the FBF Ombudsman and the AMF Ombudsman. Once you have chosen one of these two ombudsmen, you can no longer refer the same dispute to the other ombudsman.

The AMF Ombudsman can be contacted on the AMF website: www.amf-france.org/fr/le-mediateur or by mail at:

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...

1977: the cultural phenomenon Star Wars is unleashed on the world. 46 years later, the universe born from George Lucas’s imagination has become a financial empire and continues to amaze millions of fans.

No studio had faith in the vision of 29-year-old George Lucas and his mid-1970s Star Wars film project. Space opera was not a genre favoured by Hollywood and the film seemed technically infeasible at the time. However, thanks to the success of his previous film, American Graffiti, and the backing of 20th Century Fox, Lucas succeeded in launching his ambitious project.

With no major studio having a special effects department, he created Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) from scratch. From 1975, industrial designers, architects and engineers built special cameras and computers in a Californian hangar and the production of the first shot of the film took a year and cost a whopping one million dollars. And there were still 800 shots to go! Full of new special effects, the film was released on 19 October, 1977 and was a huge success.

Star Wars quickly became a blockbuster brand, which Lucas had already anticipated by negotiating the rights to Star Wars themed merchandise. Adaptations into novels, comics, television films, series and video games flourished. In 2012, business expanded yet again with the purchase of the franchise Lucasfilm by Disney with the intergalactic universe generating $40 billion in revenue in 20171. In 2020, the spin-off series The Mandalorian allowed the platform Disney+ to reach 100 million subscribers just 16 months after its launch2. And the latest spin-off? Galaxy’s Edge, in the heart of Disney parks in Florida and California, where the sets of the films have been recreated life size. The saga continues...
