Concerned about your investment in the Ecochlor, Inc.?

The White Law Group is investigating potential securities claims involving broker dealers who may have unsuitably recommended high risk alternative investments such as the Ecochlor, Inc. to investors. 

According to SEC filings, the company filed a Form D to raise capital from investors in 2014. The type of securities is purportedly equity and according to the Reg D, the total offering amount was purportedly $8,000,000.

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. In this particular investment, the placement agent is to receive 7.0% of gross proceeds, according to the form D.

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.
