Recovery of Investment Losses in Goldman Sachs MLP Income Opportunities Fund (GMZ)

Have you suffered losses investing in Goldman Sachs MLP Income Opportunities Fund (GMZ)? If so, the securities  attorneys at The White Law Group may be able to help you recover your losses through FINRA Arbitration.

Goldman Sachs MLP Income Opportunities Fund is a closed ended equity mutual fund launched and managed by Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. It reportedly invests in the public equity markets of the United States, seeking to invest in stocks of companies operating in the energy sector. It primarily invests in “midstream” master limited partnerships (MLPs).

Unfortunately for investors, most oil and gas MLPs are down substantially in the last year. According to reports this week, the Goldman Sachs fund’s 1 year return is -36.62%.

MLPs are Complex & Risky

The White Law Group is investigating the liability that brokerage firms may have for recommending high risk mutual funds that invest primarily in MLPs.

Master Limited Partnerships (MLP) are extremely complex and risky, making them better suited for institutional investors or wealthy and sophisticated retail investors.

Aggressive financial advisors may have unsuitably recommended MLP funds in an effort to chase yield. Investors who buy solely on the basis of the dividend may experience losses as the dividend is cut and the stock price declines in response.

If your financial advisor over-concentrated your portfolio in the Goldman Sachs MLP Income Opportunities Fund (GMZ), you may have a viable claim to recover your losses.  Financial advisors are required to make suitable investment recommendations, accounting for your age, income, net worth, investment experience, and investment objectives.  Diversification is the key to reducing risk.  As such, over-concentrated exposure to any sector or investment but particularly volatile industries like oil and gas, can be unsuitable for many investors.
