Back in Feb 2017, 76 members of the Green Retirement Pension Plan received letters actually recommending that they make a claim against the financial adviser that recommended the scheme.
This letter came from the Green Retirement Pension Plan itself!
Why? Because those 76 people were invested into the Para Sky Plantation: A part of Global Forestry Investments, which has been under investigation by the Serious Fraud Office since 2015.
Always a high-risk investment, GFI and therefore some investments in the GRPP were NOT suitable for some people, and those people may be able to make a claim.
The Serious Fraud Office opens its investigation in Global Forestry Investments.
In decision DRN0142614 the Ombudsman upheld a complaint from Mr H about Total Wealth Solutions advice to invest in the Green Retirement Plan, and asked them to pay compensation.
In July 2019, the SFO charged Andrew Skeene in relation to their ongoing investigation regarding Global Forestry Investments. Skeene was a former director, and was charged with conspiracy to defraud, forgery and misconduct in he course of winding up.
