● £2.37bn Transfer Volume | 10,000+ Potentially Affected | Australia / UAE / Global

What happened

Brite Advisory Group operated primarily in Australia and the UAE, advising UK nationals to transfer pensions into QROPS and SIPP structures. The firm has been linked to over £2.37 billion in transfer volume and potentially over 10,000 affected clients globally.

Route 4 civil litigation through our SRA-regulated solicitor partner panel is the primary route — fully uncapped. Route 2 FOS is assessed in parallel where UK FOS jurisdiction can be established. The Court of Appeal's Fletcher [2024] decision has significantly strengthened the legal basis for these claims.

Who this affects

UK nationals in Australia, UAE, Singapore, or elsewhere who were advised by Brite Advisory to transfer their UK defined benefit or DC pension into a QROPS or SIPP structure.

Civil Litigation (Uncapped)

Uncapped civil court recovery where the SIPP operator, pension trustee, or other party bears legal responsibility. Pursued through our SRA-regulated solicitor partner panel. Fully uncapped under SRA Claims Management Fees Rules 2024 (Rule 2.6).

No cap. Civil courts can award the full value of your demonstrable financial loss. Legal basis: Berkeley Burke v FOS [2018], Adams v Carey Pensions (FSMA s.27), Fletcher v Options UK [2024] EWCA Civ 541.
Route 2

Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS)

Independent government-backed adjudication after the firm rejects or fails to respond within 8 weeks. Also available directly where FOS has established jurisdiction over an overseas-linked case.

FOS awards up to £455,000 (advice from 1 April 2019) or £200,000 (advice before 1 April 2019). Both limits rise annually with inflation.
Questions & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

I am based in Australia. Can I bring a UK pension claim?
Yes. Where the pension transferred was a UK pension and UK-regulated structures were used, UK jurisdiction applies regardless of your location.
What does uncapped mean?
Via Route 4 there is no ceiling on what a court can award. Your claim is for the full value of your demonstrable financial loss.

You do not need to use Redress Advisory or a solicitor to pursue a pension mis-selling complaint. You can complain directly to the financial firm, escalate to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS), or apply to the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) yourself, free of charge. If you instruct a solicitor through our OSP partner panel, their fees will reduce any compensation you receive.
