Frequently Asked Questions

Can I claim if my investment performed poorly but Chase Buchanan didn't give DB transfer advice?

Yes. Suitability complaints are not limited to DB transfers. Where an adviser recommended an investment product that was unsuitable for your circumstances, attitude to risk, or capacity for loss — regardless of whether a DB transfer was involved — you may have a valid complaint.
