Are Alternative Investments Suitable for you?

Unfortunately, some brokers may have downplayed the risks associated with alternative investments. They often misled investors into thinking that they are “safe” investment products. The high sales commission brokers earn for selling such products, as high as 9% according to ATEL Growth Capital Fund VI Form- D, may have provided some brokers with enough incentive to push the product to unsuspecting investors.

Broker dealers that sell alternative investments are required to perform adequate due diligence on all investment recommendations. They must ensure that each investment is suitable for the investor in light of the investor’s age, risk tolerance, net worth, financial needs, and investment experience.

If a broker makes an unsuitable investment recommendations or fails to adequately disclose the risks associated with an investment they may be liable for investment losses.
