Compensation For Mis-Sold Investment Claims In The UK

Then it is likely that you can claim compensation for any financial loss that you may have incurred as a result.
What Are Mis-Sold Investment Claims?
Mis-selling as it happens in the financial industry can be done by independent financial advisors, brokers, bank representatives, or even other salespersons dealing in financial services or products. According to the Financial Conduct Authority, financial services should be sold to you in a transparent, fair, and non-misleading manner.
Professionals dealing with financial products and services are required to work in the best interests of their clients and advise them to buy something suitable for their needs. They are also obligated to explain correctly what such products can and cannot do. All risks should be described; otherwise, you can make a mis-sold investment claim and receive compensation.
