1 Challenges of pension transfers Overseas transfers and pension scams Ben Clacker, APMI Associate and Administration Manager Lee Moyle, DipPMI Team Leader
2 Contents Overseas transfers: 2015 & 2017 changes Pension scam case studies Pension scam consultation Conclusions 2
3 Overseas transfers April 2015 changes Removal of schemes not meeting minimum age access requirements Rebranding of list - Recognised Overseas Pension Schemes (ROPS) instead of Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pensions (QROPS) Removal of good faith protection 3
4 Overseas Transfers Analysis Requirements for recognised transfer S169(1)(b) FA2004 What does ROPS list tell us? HMRC newsletter 71 What will HMRC not tell us? HMRC Newsletter 72 Validation of requests responsibility of trustees! Penalties and sanction charges 4
5 Budget 2017 changes 1 2 Overseas Transfer Charge Revised ROPS list 5
6 Overseas Transfer Our approach Significant due diligence required - HMRC will not confirm what they expect! Administrators and trustees must decide what documents must be reviewed Engage with trustees! 6
7 Pension scam case studies 1 2 Unregulated Unregulated adviser agents and overseas property tame IFAs development 3 4 Passporting of services Status as from European occupational Economic Area (EEA) scheme and high charges 7
8 Unregulated agents and tame IFAs FOS ruling (ref: DRN ) June 2016 Background: Transfer to SIPP to invest in Caribbean hotel development Unregulated agent advised on investment Regulated adviser recommended SIPP provider SIPP invested 48,000 in development Two years later unbuilt hotel room valued at 1 Complaint made but adviser claimed agent responsible 8
9 Verdict COBS COBS COBS Adviser did not give appropriate advice required adviser to act honestly, fairly and professionally in accordance with the best interests of its client required adviser to obtain the necessary information about the client s knowledge and experience adviser should check transfer met client s investment objectives, he could bear the risks involved, and that he understood the risks 9
10 Verdict Financial Ombudsman The comparison between adviser and the agent though isn t a fair one. The agent isn t a regulated adviser. We have no jurisdiction over it. It is hugely significant that [the adviser] is. It brings a privilege to advise on pension transfers.. [The adviser] had a regulated duty to give suitable advice but didn t. FCA alert 2 August
11 Why is this ruling significant? Pension Schemes Act 1993 s99(2a(b)) Trustees are released from their statutory duty to pay transfer if: the trustees or managers have carried out the check required by section 48 of the Pension Schemes Act 2015 but the check did not confirm that the member had received appropriate independent advice COBS 19.1 FCA rules regarding transfer or conversion of safeguarded benefits 11
12 Unregulated adviser Overseas property development Common features: Cold calling and aggressive sales Client encouraged to sign declaration Adviser wholly owned by overseas property developer Latest filed accounts describe principal activity as overseas property investment sales 7% return but only during construction 12
13 Engage with member Was it a cold call? Professional advisers are unlikely to cold call Were papers couriered to them for signing? Are they aware of the consequences of taking unregulated advice on pensions transfers? Have they seen the alerts issued by Action Fraud? Recommend they obtain regulated financial advice! 13
14 Status as an occupational scheme Features of scheme: Accounts show no contributions, only transfers in Purpose of scheme described as vehicle to invest in named manager Membership restriction Lack of investment diversification Pre-emptive transfer applications 14
15 Occupational scheme analysis Statutory transfer must be to a type of scheme defined in s95 PSA1993 Pi Consulting v The Pensions Regulator - Purpose issue and Founder issue Occupational Pension Schemes (Investment) Regulations 2005 need for diversification of investments even if scheme falls under small scheme exemptions 15
16 Passporting of services from EEA Advisers operating in EEA countries passporting services to UK FCA registration number but not regulated by FCA Movement from country to country struck off in Spain further Spanish regulatory warning operating under different name move to Cyprus 16
17 Excessive Charges S164 FA2004 recognised transfer must be used..for the purposes of, or to represent rights under another registered pension scheme. Pensions Ombudsman determination (PO-1837 para 91): amount of transfer spent on introducer and other fees= inconsistent with recognised transfer Reasonable basis to refuse transfer where excessive fees would be incurred Excessive not defined freedom to make judgement call 17
18 Current Developments Pension scams: consultation 5 December 2016 to 13 February 2017 Proposed introduction of three measures: 1 Ban on cold calling in relation to pensions 2 Limiting the statutory right to transfer to some occupational pension schemes 3 Making it harder for fraudsters to open small pension schemes 18
19 Ban on cold calling Ban on all cold calls in relation to pensions - to be achieved through primary legislation Message to consumers that cold calls = fraud Information Commissioner s Office: powers to impose civil sanctions fines up to 500,000 19
20 Limitations 1 2 s and texts Ban on cold currently not in calling only scope although effective question is against UK raised in based consultation operations document 20
21 Limit on statutory transfers Statutory right to a transfer would exist only where: the receiving scheme is an FCA authorised personal pension scheme employment link to the receiving occupational pension scheme earnings employer participation the receiving occupational pension scheme is an authorised master trust 21
22 Making it harder to open fraudulent schemes Only active (non-dormant) companies can be used to register occupational schemes To be enforced through HMRCs scheme registration process 22
23 Conclusions Onus on administrators: Transfers are difficult! Trustees need to understand responsibilities culture of awareness focus on quality robust procedures escalation mechanism engage with trustees engage with members most powerful tool liberation tourism We all have a moral duty to get this right! 23
