Making claims for financial advisor negligence

Most financial advisors have the training, qualifications and FCA authorisation to give good pension advice. However, this doesn’t mean they can’t get it wrong.

Every year, people all over the UK receive negligent or misinformed financial advice on where and how to invest their pension funds. Not only can this lead to lost opportunities, but it can also leave their pension pot considerably smaller than they expected. If you’re a victim of mis-selling, you may be able to make a pension compensation claim.

Do you know how people complained about mis-sold investments and pensions in the last year?

A lot. Over twenty thousand complaints were made about mis-sold investments and pensions in 2020/21, a figure which had doubled since the year before.. It’s no secret how serious this problem is, and it just seems to keep getting worse.

People receive poor financial advice every day. Sometimes they don’t even realise that they’re owed whopping amounts of compensation.

Financial advisor mis-sold pension FAQs

Why does pension mis-selling happen?

People are mis-sold pensions for a number of reasons. Sometimes it can be down to things as simple as a financial advisor’s inexperience. In some scenarios, such as when recommending high-risk investments or transferring from Final Salary Schemes, the financial advisors could be eyeing up big transfer fees or hidden commission payments.

If you are an inexperienced investor, it is easy to fall into the trap of believing everything a financial advisor tells you. But don’t worry, there could be a way to get your hard-earned money back where it belongs – in your pocket.

What is a mis-sold pension?

A mis-sold pension is a pension product that has been sold to you without proper advice or consideration of your individual circumstances or needs. This could be because the advisor was unqualified, failed to understand your personal situation, put their own interests ahead of yours, or gave you false or misleading information.

What are the signs that I might have been mis-sold a pension?

Here are some signs that you may have been mis-sold a pension:

  • You were cold-called or pressured into transferring your pension.
  • You were not given all the information you needed to make an informed decision, such as the risks involved and the costs of transferring your pension.
  • You were advised to transfer your pension to a product that was not suitable for your needs, such as a Self-Invested Personal Pension (SIPP) if you were not comfortable with investing your own money.
  • You were promised guaranteed returns or told that your pension was 100% safe.
  • You were not informed of the fees and commissions that you would be paying.
  • You have suffered financial losses as a result of transferring your pension.

What types of pensions have been mis-sold?

A wide range of pensions have been mis-sold, including:

  • Self-Invested Personal Pensions (SIPPs)
  • Small Self-Administered Schemes (SSASs)
  • Final salary pension transfers
  • Personal pensions
  • Occupational pension schemes
