Elysian Fuels SIPP Compensation Claims

Elysian Fuels was a collection of companies that mis-sold Sipp pension funds to their British clients. They are in liquidation, and are no longer able to pay back any returns on investment.  If you were convinced to exchange your retirement savings from an established scheme to an unregulated Sipp that contained Elysian Fuels, you might have been mis-sold Sipp products.

There are currently 77 different companies registered with Companies House under the name Elysian Fuels. Some are private limited companies, and others are limited liability partnerships. All of these companies are currently engaged in liquidation proceedings or have been formally dissolved.

They were located at one of three addresses: 30 Finsbury Square, London, EC2P 2YU; 27-28 Eastcastle Street, London, W1W 8DH; and 10 Old Burlington Street, London, W1S 3AG.

Did your financial advisor fail to accurately assess your financial situation and recommend you invest in Elysian Fuels? If so, you could be entitled to mis-sold Sipp compensation from the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). With the help of our claims experts, you could recoup some or all of the money you lost.

What Happened with Elysian Fuels?

In 2013, the first Elysian Fuels company was launched as a part of a Grimsby Bioethanol plant. This was a large endeavor with more than £200 million of funding, 90% of which came from mis-sold Sipp pension funds. Elysian Fuels was touted as a ‘green investment,’ attracting people interested in ethical trading. Football manager Rafael Benitez and other professional footballers got involved, and a number of high-profile bankers.

Things were going well until the price of oil tanked, and the Channel Island Stock Exchange removed Elysian from their listings. Investors lost their retirement savings, and those who had been mis-sold Sipp products were left with no recourse. Thankfully, the FSCS has now made mis-sold Sipp compensation available for people scammed by the Elysian Fuels debacle.

Are you entitled to mis-sold Sipp compensation from Elysian Fuels?

If you were mis-sold Sipp pension investments in Elysian Fuels without being made aware of the risks, you could be eligible for mis-sold Sipp compensation. Your advisor should have thoroughly analyzed your income, investment holdings, and debt before recommending an unregulated Sipp.

• Did your financial advisor push you to invest in Elysian Fuels, or use high-pressure sales tactics?

• Were you misled about fees and charges?
