GK Secured Income Investments III Investigation

Concerned with your investment in GK Secured Income Investments III?

Are you concerned about your investment in GK Secured Income Investments III? 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.

GK Development Group is a Barrington, Illinois-based real estate acquisition and development company “specializing in retail and commercial properties since 1995,” according to its website.

The company filed a Form D to raise capital from investors in 2016 with the offering GK Secured Income Investments III. The offering type is equity.

GK Secured Income Investments III is a Regulation D private placement investment. 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%.

The problem with private placement investments such as GK Secured Income Investments III is that they typically involve a high degree of risk. They are also often sold as unregistered securities which lack the same regulatory oversight as more traditional investment products like stocks or bonds.

Investigating Potential Lawsuits

The White Law Group is investigating the liability that FINRA registered brokerage firms may have for improperly recommending high-risk investments, like GK Secured Income Investments III, to investors.

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.

Fortunately, FINRA does provide for an arbitration forum for investors to resolve disputes if a broker or brokerage firm makes an unsuitable investment recommendation or fails to adequately disclose the risks associated with an investment. It is possible that they could be found liable for investment losses in a FINRA arbitration claim.
