Financial mis-selling in Edinburgh — Scotland's financial capital
Edinburgh is Scotland's financial capital, home to major financial institutions including Abrdn (formerly Standard Life Aberdeen), Baillie Gifford, Royal Bank of Scotland, and Lloyds Banking Group Scotland. This concentration of financial services activity has made Edinburgh a significant source of investment mis-selling and pension complaints — both from clients of Edinburgh-based firms and from Edinburgh clients advised by FCA-regulated firms elsewhere in the UK.
Standard Life / Abrdn claims
Abrdn and its predecessor entities (Standard Life, Aberdeen Asset Management) have been the subject of client complaints regarding investment products and pension management. If you held products with Standard Life or Abrdn and experienced significant losses or received unsuitable advice, you may have a mis-selling claim.
Scottish prescription — what Edinburgh clients should know
The standard Scottish prescriptive period is generally 5 years from when loss first became apparent (shorter than English law). However, FOS complaints follow UK-wide rules regardless of where you live, and the date-of-knowledge principles still apply. We advise on which rules apply to your specific claim.
