Notes

@sipp was established in 2001 to deliver the highest quality of technical expertise and customer service in Self Invested Personal Pension provision. @sipp has grown largely on the quality of service delivered to IFA clients looking to invest in commercial property but has since grown to provide a service across the asset classes. With @sipp being totally independent from life company or fund management influences, this gives the IFA and their client total freedom to choose from the wider market and select assets to meet individual needs. The business initially supported IFAs in the central belt of Scotland but soon spread to cover IFAs across the UK. @sipp is now focussed on following a strategy to build a national provider of real SIPPs as the sector professionalises in response to market and regulatory influences.
