Ocean Fund LTD Securities Investigation

Ocean Fund LTD Investigating Potential Lawsuits

Are you concerned about your investment in Ocean Fund LTD? If so, the securities attorneys at The White Law Group may be able to help you by filing a FINRA Dispute Resolution claim against the brokerage firm that sold you the investment.

According to filings with the SEC, Ocean Fund LTD is a hedge fund operated by Infinity Capital Advisors, LLC and has approximately $70.7 million in assets.  The total offering amount, $79,188,912, was purportedly sold to 121 investors, according to a REG D filing on September 1, 2017.

The company has filed several Form Ds to raise capital from investors, according to SEC filings. Investments such as these are typically sold by brokerage firms in exchange for a large up front commission. High fees can range from 7-10%, as well as additional “due diligence fees” that can range from 1-3%.

Private placements investments are a means for companies to raise capital through the sale of equity or debt securities without having to register their securities with the SEC. These investments are often riskier and more complicated than traditional investments, and are only suitable for high net worth, sophisticated investors.

Is a Private Placement Investment Suitable for you?

The White Law Group is investigating the liability that FINRA registered brokerage firms may have for improperly selling high-risk private placements.

Despite the risks of investing in private placements, brokerage firms continue to push this type of investment because of the high commissions associated with their sale and creation.

Prior to making recommendations to an individual investor, brokerage firms are required by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) to disclose all the risks of an investment. Recommendations should only be made if the investment is suitable for an individual investor given their age, investment objections, investment experience and risk tolerance.

Brokerage firms that do not perform adequate due diligence on an investment and/or make unsuitable recommendations can be held accountable for investment losses through FINRA arbitration.
