What happened in Singapore

Singapore hosts one of the largest concentrations of UK financial professionals and expats in Asia. deVere Group and Chase Buchanan both operated significantly in Singapore, advising UK nationals on pension transfers into QROPS and SIPP structures. Typical CETVs for Singapore-based clients often exceed £500,000.

The Fletcher [2024] Court of Appeal decision has significantly strengthened the legal basis for Route 4 claims arising from Singapore-based pension transfers. Route 2 FOS is also assessed in parallel. The Singapore market is considered largely untapped — most affected clients have never complained.

Who this affects

UK nationals currently or previously based in Singapore who were advised to transfer a UK DB or DC pension into a QROPS, SIPP, or offshore structure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I bring a UK pension claim while based in Singapore?
Yes. Residency in Singapore does not affect your right to bring a UK pension claim relating to UK pension structures.
I have since retired back to the UK. Does that change anything?
Your current location does not affect your right to claim. The advice and the pension structures used at the time are the relevant frame of reference.

Whether your case is still open depends on when you first became aware of a potential problem — not simply when the transfer took place. The three-year discovery rule means some cases that appear old may still be within time.
