When your financial service companies merge or change their names

Savings or investment plans set up by your parents and grandparents

Lack of records in deceased estates

The main reason why the amount of ‘lost’ money is so large is that people move around a lot more than they used to, and financial service administrators make little effort to locate lost beneficiaries.

Should you be lucky enough to get re-connected with some money, you would be charged an administration fee. If the money is part of your pension, however, then the pension fund pays the ‘finding fee’ and there is no charge to you.
