The White Law Group Announces the Filing of a FINRA Arbitration Claim Against IBN Financial Services, Inc.
FINRA Claim Alleges Unsuitable Investing in High-Risk Private Placements
Greentown, PA, June 25, 2018 --(PR.com)-- The White Law Group filed and submitted the FINRA claim on behalf of a Greentown, PA couple alleging claims for violation of common law fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence, and negligent supervision.
The claim further alleges that IBN Financial Services, Inc. unsuitably invested the client in the following high risk private placement investments:
Bakken Drilling Fund III, LP
Carter Validus
Sierra
ARC New York REIT Inc.
The claim seeks damages between $100,000 and $500,000.
Before recommending an investment, a broker-dealer has a fiduciary duty to adequately disclose the risks involved in the investment and to perform the necessary due diligence to determine whether the investment is suitable for the investor.
It is alleged IBN Financial Services, Inc. failed to perform the necessary due diligence on these investments prior to recommending them to these particular investors.
It is further alleged that the financial advisor that handled the accounts at issue is Anthony Diaz. According to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Diaz has been the subject of at least three regulatory events, four employment separations and forty-three customer complaints. Mr. Diaz was also recently barred from the industry in any capacity as a result of the regulatory events.
According to D. Daxton White, managing partner of The White Law Group, "It is unfortunate, but we believe that many more investors have suffered devastating losses due to the broker-dealer's alleged failure to supervise and don't realize they have recovery options."
“Brokerage firms are required to supervise their advisors to ensure that they are complying with FINRA rules. If it can be determined that Anthony Diaz violated FINRA rules and the employers failed to adequately supervise him, these firms can be held responsible for any resulting losses in a FINRA arbitration claim.”
FINRA Dispute Resolution is an arbitration venue for investors with claims against their brokerage firm or financial professional. It provides investors with an opportunity to attempt to recoup their investment losses without filing such claims in court.
The White Law Group is a national securities fraud, securities arbitration, and investor protection law firm with offices in Chicago, Illinois and Vero Beach, Florida.
