Investor Allegations 

On July 30, 2024, an investor alleged that Bryce Hamilton recommended unsuitable investments. The investor is seeking $300,000. 

What is an Unsuitable Investment? 

FINRA Rule 2111, a.k.a. The Suitability Rule, requires brokers to tailor their investment recommendations to suit investors’ needs. 

Rule 2111 also requires brokers to consider the following investor characteristics: 

• Age
• Risk tolerance
• Time horizon (i.e., how long the investor plans to hold the investment)
• Investing experience
• Tax status
• Financial goals

Investments that do not fit the criteria established by the investor profile may be unsuitable. Investors who rely on brokers for recommendations may recover their losses by pursuing FINRA arbitration.
