Global Investments Advisers

Hi I have been approached over the phone by the above named company re investing some of my lump sum pension. Does anyone know anything about them? Had dealings with them? I looked them up on the web but their site just gives the usual speel about their mission statement etc. What I want to know is are they any good? Are they reputable - are they expensive????
Any comments/remarks appreciated. Thanks

If you didn't ask for them to call you, I would strongly suggest you go elsewhere for financial advice.

We get asked this quite often on here and the responses are the same.

No genuine financial services firm or broker is going to ring you up out of the blue. This is either a sign of desperation or an activity in breach of FSA rules. Usually the latter as many of these firms are not based in the UK and try to sell overseas investments.

Treat any call like this as dodgy unless proven otherwise by independent sources. here is more information on one of common types of scam. http://www.moneymadeclear.fsa.gov.uk/news/scams/share_scams.html
