Jarvis does not provide pensions, investment, financial, legal, or taxation advice or any recommendations in relation to the Jarvis SIPP (as defined below).

In the interim, Your Jarvis SIPP is not a vehicle through which You can access Your pension savings (e.g. in the form of drawdown, taking a lump sum, or drawing a regular pension). When You wish to access Your pension, You will need to transfer Your benefits to a suitable arrangement which meets Your requirements.
 

Any investments provided through the Jarvis SIPP can go down in value as well as up and Jarvis is not liable for any losses You incur (including but not limited to any taxation liabilities).
 

These Terms & Conditions together with the other documents specified in clause 1 below create a legally binding agreement between You and Us.

For your own benefit and protection, You should consider taking independent financial, investment, and/or legal advice. If You do not agree with any of the terms set out in the aforementioned documents, You should not use Our Services.
