Is an Alternative Investment Suitable for you?

Alternative investments are not suitable for all investors, especially those who need liquidity in their investment.  Brokerage firms have a responsibility to adequately disclose all risks before selling any investment and must consider suitability factors such as age, financial needs, and risk tolerance to name a few.

However, many brokerage firms overlook suitability regulations set forth by the SEC to earn the high commissions that these types of investments often come with.  Sales commissions can range from 6% to 10%,  and often come with a 2%- 3.0% dealer manager fee.

Brokerage firms that do not perform adequate due diligences on an investment or demonstrate a breach of fiduciary duty can be held accountable for losses incurred through FINRA arbitration.
