Jaguar Health Inc. (JAGX): Securities Investigation 

Jaguar Health Inc. (JAGX): Securities Investigation, featured by top securities fraud attorneys, the White Law Group

Concerned about your investment in Jaguar Health Inc.? 

Have you suffered investment losses in Jaguar Health Inc. at the recommendation of your broker or financial advisor? If so, the securities attorneys at the White Law Group may be able to help you. 

Jaguar Health, Inc., formerly known as Jaguar Animal Health, is reportedly a commercial stage pharmaceutical company. The company is focused on developing plant-based, non-opioid, and sustainably derived prescription medicines for people and animals with gastrointestinal (GI) distress, according to its website. 

According to filings with the SEC, the Jaguar Health Inc. filed a Form D to raise capital from investors in 2019. The total offering amount sold was purportedly $1,087,500, according to the Reg D filing.  

The trouble with Reg D private placement investments such as Jaguar Health Inc. is that they involve a high degree of risk and are typically sold as unregistered securities which lack the same regulatory oversight as more traditional investment products like stocks and bonds.   

Further, Reg D private placements are typically sold by brokerage firms in exchange for a large up-front commission, usually between 7-10%. In this particular offering the sales commissions and fees were estimated at more than 9% of the total offering amount.  

Private placement investments are also illiquid. It can be difficult to sell your alternative investment since it isn’t traded on any exchange, and if you are able to find a buyer in a secondary market, you may lose money in the sale.  To learn more about the risks of investing in Reg D private placement investments please see: Regulation D Private Placement Fraud Attorneys
