ERM Resort LLC Investors Lawsuit Investigation
The White Law Group is investigating claims involving investments in ERM Resort LLC, one of the private securities offerings at the center of a reported SEC enforcement action against Rita Mansour and McDonald Partners LLC.
According to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), investors in ERM Resort LLC were allegedly misled about the risks of the investment and not informed about the misappropriation of funds by a key figure in the Montenegrin development project the offering was meant to support.
What is ERM Resort LLC?
ERM Resort LLC was reportedly one of two pooled investment vehicles (PIVs) created to raise money for the construction of a five-star resort in Montenegro. The offering was reportedly promoted by McDonald Partners and its longtime advisor Rita Mansour. The SEC alleges that the fund was sold to both brokerage and advisory clients, raising millions of dollars between 2013 and 2017.
The stated purpose of the offering was allegedly to provide bridge funding to a Montenegrin entity by purchasing its debt, which would help fund resort construction.
Recovery of Investment Losses
If you invested in ERM Resort LLC through Rita Mansour or McDonald Partners, you may be entitled to recover your losses through FINRA arbitration. Brokerage firms have a responsibility to conduct due diligence and to disclose material risks to investors. When they fail in those duties, investors may have a claim.
FINRA Arbitration May Be an Option
Many investors are unaware that they don’t need to wait for a class action. Through FINRA arbitration, you may be able to pursue an individual claim for damages tied to investments like ERM Resort LLC. These claims are often faster and more efficient than traditional litigation.
