Rowanmoor Personal Pensions Limited, one of the UK's largest independent self-invested personal pension providers, responsible for 14,000 investors, has entered administration following on from a Financial Ombudsman decision late last year.

The Self-Invested Personal Pension (SIPP) provider had a large number of high-risk and non-standard assets, and the Financial Ombudsman Services decision confirmed that it did not carry out adequate due diligence before accepting these assets.

Rowanmoor has appointed Adam Stephens and Chris Allen of Evelyn Partners as joint administrators.

Compensation

Are you aware that you may be able to recover unfair SIPP fees and charges?

Are you aware that you may still be able to obtain compensation if your initial IFA complaint was rejected, for time barring or other reasons, even by the Financial Ombudsman Services?

You should also explore your options if you have invested into funds which can’t be readily sold or there is no second market.

Some of the investments we have seen in the portfolios are:

If your investments are not on the list it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t seek advice.

The majority of SIPP providers value the investment at purchase price, if a true value can’t be obtained. You may only find out if your pension is performing when it comes to retirement.

Don’t leave it too late!

Review Your Transactions

If you had dealings with any of those firms you should review all the transactions which were made and get in touch with us if you have any concerns about the advice you received or the way your investments are performing.

You may have suffered losses, even if your annual statements show that your money is safe.

Clients usually contact us when they are close to retirement and are suddenly being told that they can’t access their pension funds – as the investments can’t be sold or have gone into liquidation.

Your annual pension forecast will show growth, when the provider should state that the forecast is not based on fund performance.
