The Financial Services Compensation Scheme has declared Greenhill (Life & Pensions) Ltd (FRN: 126761), of Beaconsfield, Bucks, as failed.
The move by the industry-funded compensation safety net opens the door to ex-clients with valid claims to seek compensation of up to £85,000 per claim.
The FSCS said that it had so far received three claims against the firm in connection with pensions advice.
One claim has now been upheld triggering the default declaration.
The firm was judged as failed as of yesterday (2 September 2025) but Companies House records show the firm was dissolved in December 2022 and ceased to be authorised by the FCA after 27 February 2018. It was incorporated in 1986.
The FCA register shows six people listed as CF1 (senior directors) of the firm. They were: Christopher John Cruikshank, Martin Cogger, John David Miles, David Christopher Cook, James Jarlath McDonagh and Roy George Coggins.
The company was formerly known as Greenhill (Life & Pensions Brokers) Ltd and also traded as Greenhill. It was based in Burkes Road, Beaconsfield.
