Did you take out a PIAS as a safe investment option and now find that you cannot recover your investment?

At Díaz-Saavedra & Yánez Abogados, we offer a personalised legal advisory service for individuals who purchased a PIAS (Individual Systematic Savings Plan) without having received clear, complete, and understandable information about its true characteristics, associated risks, or long-term implications. In many cases, this type of product was presented as a safe savings solution, when in reality its profitability depends on the performance of complex financial products and does not guarantee the full return of the invested capital.

If you signed a PIAS contract relying on the information provided to you and later discovered unclear clauses, restrictions on accessing your money, or unexpected penalties, you may have grounds for a legal claim. Our legal team can help assess whether there was a lack of information, insufficient transparency, or whether the product was unsuitable for your consumer profile, which could provide a solid basis for pursuing legal action.

We assess your situation and provide legal guidance

In recent months, multiple cases have emerged involving individuals who signed PIAS agreements with entities such as OVB Allfinanz, FWU Forward You, and other intermediaries, and who are now questioning the validity of the product. At Díaz-Saavedra & Yánez Abogados, we place our legal expertise at your disposal to assess whether there may be grounds for a potential claim.

Our legal approach includes:

  • Individual assessment of your case
  • Legal advice throughout every stage of the process
  • Legal representation before financial institutions or courts, where appropriate

What is a PIAS and why might you be able to make a claim?

A PIAS (Individual Systematic Savings Plan) is a long-term financial product that combines life insurance with a periodic savings scheme. Although it was often presented as a safe alternative with tax advantages, the reality is that its profitability depends on the performance of complex financial products and does not guarantee the full return of the capital invested. In addition, many PIAS products include unclear conditions, high fees, and significant penalties in the event of early withdrawal.

These products have become the subject of controversy because, in many cases, they were marketed without properly explaining their risks, operation, or associated costs. Many affected individuals signed the contracts without fully understanding what they were agreeing to, relying on promises of security or profitability that were not properly documented. In situations like these, there may have been a defect in consent or a breach of the duty to provide information on the part of the intermediary or insurance company, which could open the door to exploring legal avenues to recover the amounts invested.

Recent Case Law on PIAS Claims

Claims relating to PIAS products are now supported by established court rulings. A judgment delivered in 2024 by the Provincial Court of Madrid has opened a legal pathway for claiming against these types of products when they have been mis-sold or presented without sufficient transparency. Below is a summary of the most relevant aspects.

Key Judgment

In September 2024, the Provincial Court of Madrid annulled several unit-linked insurance contracts, including a PIAS issued by Forward You (FWU) and intermediated by OVB. The court ruled that the client had not been provided with the necessary information to fully understand the product being contracted.

Legal Grounds

The judgment recognises the lack of clear, sufficient, and understandable information, as well as the absence of a prior assessment of the client’s financial profile. These shortcomings breach the legal duties of transparency and financial advice required of financial intermediaries.

Legal Implications

As a result of this ruling, it may be possible to take legal action directly against the intermediary, without the need for the insurer to respond first. This allows affected individuals to claim back their contributions, legal interest, and other costs arising from the contract.

Legal Significance

This judicial decision sets an important precedent for individuals who entered into similar products without fully understanding their terms and conditions. If your situation is comparable, you may be in a favourable legal position to seek recovery of your investment.
