A ruling against a Sipp operator which sparked fears of a precedent being set and a rise in claims will be reviewed by The Financial Ombudsman Service.
A sipp firm has undertaken research, which suggests that awareness of Sipps among young people has risen significantly since the Budget in March.
IFG Group, which owns Sipp and SSAS wrap provider James Hay, has sold its Irish pension and advisory business to Willis Ireland for £10.8m.
Barnett Waddingham has purchased Harsant Pensions for an undisclosed figure, in a deal which will see the firm add more than 400 Sipp and 70 SSAS clients to its existing book of business.
The threat of a further levy hangs over advisers due to increased compensation linked to Sipp claims.
