Bank House Investment Management Claims Guide
We’ll have a specialist call you back for a no obligation chat about your financial claim
Bankhouse Investment Management Limited gave many people pension advice, and often that advice was to invest their retirement money through a SIPP : Self-Invested Personal Pension.
SIPPs can be great, but some of the investments inside them can be high-risk, and we now know some Bank House Investment Management client weren’t properly informed about the risk some investments like The AIGO Funds, and Carbon Credits presented.
Some were mis-sold their SIPPs by Bank House, and the financial-services watchdogs at the FCA may have noticed.
If you switched your pension with Bank House Investment Management, you may be able to make mis-sold SIPP claim – find out if with a FREE initial assessment with Spencer Churchill Claims Advice.

FCA Action Against Bank House
Companies that want to give pension advice in the UK need to be regulated by the FCA, and have the right pension permissions.
After a while, the FCA removed Bankhouse’s permissions, making special mention that Bankhouse could not Invest people’s money into SIPPs with high-risk investments.
Later on, it removed ALL of their permissions by saying they “must cease all regulated activities”.
Despite agreeing not to deal with any more pensions, Bank House continued to make pension switches.
As things stands, Bankhouse cannot offer pension advice anymore.
