Sustainable AgroEnergy
Sustainable AgroEnergy Investment Claim
This is an investment that was sold in biofuel, based in a plantation in Cambodia. This went into administration, and investors lost a substantial amount of funds.
The mismanagement of these investments was so severe that the Serious Fraud Office was involved and custodial sentences for the directors were passed down.
In this case it was noted that the fraud was a “thickening quagmire of dishonesty… there were more than 250 victims of relatively modest means some of whom had lost all of their life savings and their homes.”
This was a highly risky, illiquid asset to be investing in and as far back as 2010 had been identified as financially and ethically questionable. Many investors were sold the investment as part of their SIPP without full knowledge of the scheme itself or it’s complex arrangement.
Many investors have lost their pensions and their life savings as a result of this investment. If you were given advice by an Independent Financial Adviser to transfer your pension to this scheme without a full assessment of your circumstances, or understanding the risks involved, you may be entitled to recover money that has been lost.
