When is a company deemed to be ‘in Default’?
A company is declared in default when it is no longer able to financially bear to pay compensations for claims against it. However, as all 17 firms were regulated – as a result, clients might be able to get some of their money back if it has been lost.
This gives an opportunity to the clients of the firm to seek compensation directly from the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).
The FSCS is a compensation scheme of last resort for clients of regulated financial services firms. It is funded by the Financial Services Industry.
The limit on the amount of compensation payable by the FSCS for the above firms is £85,000.
The Financial Litigation Team at Oakwood Solicitors has experience in helping clients receive compensation from the FSCS in relation to negligent financial advice.

- We operate on a Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA) more commonly known as ‘No-win, no-fee.’
- If we fail to secure you a settlement, you will not be charged.
- Any charges will be deducted from your settlement, so you will not need to pay us anything out of your own pocket.
