Robert Wayne Pearce Is Committed to Recovering Your Investment Losses
FINRA Rule 2111, the suitability rule, is relevant because the pending customer dispute alleges improper recommendations involving alternative investments. In that context, the key issue is whether Harvey had a reasonable basis to believe any recommended alternative investment was suitable based on the investor’s profile, including investment objectives, risk tolerance, liquidity needs, time horizon, financial condition, and investment experience. Alternative investments may involve illiquidity, valuation concerns, limited transparency, and elevated risk, making customer-specific suitability analysis especially important.
FINRA Rule 2090, the know-your-customer rule, may also be relevant to the pending allegations. This rule requires broker-dealers and associated persons to use reasonable diligence to know essential facts about each customer and the authority of each person acting on the customer’s behalf. In a dispute involving alleged improper recommendations of alternative investments, documents and communications concerning the customer’s income, net worth, risk tolerance, liquidity needs, and investment objectives may be important in determining whether the broker adequately understood the investor before making recommendations.
FINRA Rule 2010 requires brokers to observe high standards of commercial honor and just and equitable principles of trade. The pending complaint against Harvey alleges improper recommendations and other acts and omissions. If the allegations are proven, conduct involving unsuitable recommendations, material omissions, or unfair sales practices may raise issues under FINRA’s broad ethical standard requiring fair dealing with customers.
