Northstar Financial Services (Bermuda) LTD Files Chapter 15 Bankruptcy

Did your broker recommend an investment in Northstar Financial Services (Bermuda) LTD? If so, the securities attorneys at The White Law Group may be able to help you to recover your losses by filing a FINRA dispute resolution claim against your brokerage firm.

Many financial advisors in the United States apparently sold Northstar Financial Services (Bermuda) LTD to investors allegedly promising tax benefits and a safe, low risk investment. The company reportedly offered variable and fixed rate annuity products, but went belly up last September when it filed for Chapter 15 bankruptcy, according to court records.

In April 2021, the Bermuda Supreme Court reportedly turned down a request by the company which asked for more time to restructure. Instead, the company will be liquidated and proceeds will go to creditors upon approval of the Bermuda Supreme Court.

Chapter 15 bankruptcy allows foreign nationals to file for bankruptcy in the U.S. bankruptcy courts if they have assets, property, or business in multiple countries, including the U.S.

There have been several lawsuits filed against various broker dealers after the company’s apparent collapse.  Allegations state that financial advisors misrepresented Northstar as a safe, low risk product similar to a bank CD, promising guaranteed monthly returns as well as protection of principal.
