The letter reads: “In 2019, a review was commissioned by the FCA into defined benefit transfer advice given to people in relation to the transfer of their DB pension. “As part of the review, the FCA assessed a sample of the DB transfer advice provided by Bartholomew Hawkins. The FCA findings are sufficiently concerning that you are being contacted directly to encourage you to act.”
