Investor Alleges Bryant King Sold Unsuitable Variable Policy

Bryant King (CRD #: 6136051), a broker registered with Equitable Advisors, was involved in a recent dispute, according to his BrokerCheck record, accessed on May 16, 2022. Read on if you have questions about Bryant King’s conduct as a broker.

Investor Disputes

Bryant King has been named in two investor disputes, both of which were denied by Equitable Advisors:

  • On March 2, 2022, an investor alleged that Bryant King sold them an unsuitable variable policy in 2020.
  • On September 24, 2015, an investor claimed that Bryant King misrepresented a variable annuity purchased in 2014.

Investors should know that firms do not need to allow an external review before denying a dispute. Even if a dispute has been denied, investors can still seek FINRA arbitration to recover their losses.

FINRA Rule 2111

FINRA Rule 2111 requires that brokers tailor their investment recommendations to suit investors’ profiles. Brokers must take into consideration the information provided in these profiles, such as clients’ tax status, other investments, and financial goals.

Investors who feel their losses were caused by unsuitable investment recommendations may be able to recoup their losses by seeking FINRA arbitration.

FINRA Rule 2020

Misrepresentation of an investment violates FINRA Rule 2020, which bans the use of deceptive, manipulative, and otherwise unethical means of influencing the sale or purchase of securities.
