iSelect Innovation Fund I LLC Lawsuit Investigation

iSelect Innovation Fund I: Help for Investors

The White Law Group is investigating potential securities lawsuits involving broker dealers who may have improperly recommended iSelect Innovation Fund I, LLC to investors.

What is iSelect Innovation Fund I, LLC?

iSelect Innovation Fund I, LLC, a pooled investment fund structured as a limited liability company, reportedly filed a Form D to raise capital from investors in 2017. The total offering amount was marked as indefinite, and the issuer had reportedly raised $3,310,000 from 92 investors. The filing lists estimated sales commissions of $210,000, or up to 7% of all sales.

REG D Private Placements: High Risk Investments

Private placement investments are often touted for their income potential and for being “non-correlated” to the stock market. Too often the financial advisor or broker ignores and/or fails to disclose the risks involved in these investments.

However, private placement investments such as iSelect Innovation Fund I, LLC are typically illiquid investments. There are often legal or contractual restrictions on your ability to liquidate your investment, and even if sale of the offering is permitted there may be no buyers. You may need to hold these securities for an indefinite period of time.

Companies that issue unlisted securities may provide little or no transparency into their financial condition.

While some private placement investments may make periodic distributions, some may not make any at all. Another problem is the high fees and commissions that brokers and financial advisors may receive for the sale of a private placement investment– sometimes close to 10% of the client’s total investment.

iSelect Innovation Fund I Offerings: Suitable for you?

Under the “Regulation Best Interest” standard, broker-dealers are obligated to perform due diligence when evaluating any investment. If your financial advisor fails to perform due diligence on an investment before recommending it to you, they could be held liable for investment losses.

If your advisor unsuitably recommended a private placement investment and you lost money, the securities attorneys at The White Law Group may be able to help you. You may be able to recover losses by filing a FINRA Arbitration lawsuit against the brokerage firm that sold you the investment.

Lawsuit Options: FINRA Arbitration vs. Class Action

Investors considering legal action may wonder whether a class action lawsuit or an individual FINRA arbitration claim is the better option. Typically:

• FINRA Arbitration is often more suitable for investors with losses exceeding $100,000.

• Class Action Lawsuits are usually pursued when numerous investors have small claims that are impractical to litigate individually.
