Did Your Financial Advisor Put a Commission Ahead of Your Best Interests?
Private placements can generate substantial compensation for brokers and brokerage firms. Investors should understand whether their advisor had financial incentives to recommend one investment over another.
A broker may violate industry rules if they recommend a complex private placement investment without adequately determining whether it is suitable for the investor.
Financial professionals may also have obligations to properly explain:
- The possibility of losing principal;
- Restrictions on selling the investment;
- Fees and commissions;
- Conflicts of interest;
- Sponsor risks;
- The speculative nature of the investment.

648 Whisper Lane Investors, LLC and the Risks of Alternative Investments
Many investors are not fully aware of the problems and risks associated with illiquid, high risk, alternative investments when they purchase them.
These investments are often riskier and more complicated than traditional investments. These funds are only suitable for high net worth, sophisticated investors.
Liquidity Issues and High Sales Commissions
Alternative investments can face several liquidity issues due to their unique characteristics and structure.
Another problem often associated with alternative investments is the high sales commissions brokers typically earn for selling them. Brokers have an obligation to make investment recommendations that are consistent with their clients risk tolerance, net worth, investment objectives and experience in the market.
Unfortunately, in many cases, the high sales commission may influence unsuitable investment recommendations.
Broker Due Diligence
Broker dealers are required to perform adequate due diligence on any investment they recommend and to ensure that all recommendations are suitable for the investor. Firms that fail to do so may be held responsible for any losses in a FINRA arbitration claim.
