Liberty SIPP

First of all, if you are a Liberty SIPP holder then you will have been well aware of the negative press they have been receiving. Indeed, while the name Liberty SIPP has become synonymous with mis-selling of SIPP’s between 2011 and 2013 it is claimed that up to 700 investors have suffered significant losses. As a result, a major lawsuit has been taken out against them

Are you wanting more information on the current portfolio of your Liberty SIPP? In addition, would you like to know more about what options are available to you?

First of all, what is the key issue with the Liberty SIPP?

Selling of Non-Uk Standard Assets – by selling non-UK assets in high-risk unregulated investments a number of pension holders have lost money. A high risk investment should only ever be used for experienced investors with money they can afford to lose. Any investment used should be a UK standard asset, thus being regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). By investing peoples pensions (never high risk) in unregulated assets Liberty SIPP have betrayed the very people they are entrusted to protect.
