What is a Mis-sold pension?
Essentially, a mis-sold pension is any kind of pension scheme which you were persuaded to invest or transfer, these transfers involve taking your money out of safe investments and putting it into risky or unregulated alternatives. Usually, these transfers are sold by financial advisors with the promise of a large return and a comfortable retirement.

Self Invested Personal Pensions
​
A Self Invested Personal Pension (SIPP) is a scheme that gives you a higher level of control over your own pension. This means you get access to more choices on where you can invest your retirement fund, allowing you to manage your own investments and savings, rather than relying on a pension company or fund manager. The appeal of such a scheme is clear, but the risks associated with it are sometimes not made obvious to investors.

Mis-Sold Annuities Claims
​
With an Annuity policy, you’re essentially buying an income for your life in retirement. Indeed, for a lump sum – or the cost of your pension pot – the annuity gives you a permanent income, in monthly or yearly installments.
​
To calculate how much you’ll receive each year, the financial provider will look at things like your health, age, and lifestyle to determine when you may die.
