Investor Allegations

On September 2, 2021, an investor filed a dispute against Daniel Solakian alleging that the broker made an unsuitable investment recommendation. The damage amount requested is $250,000. The dispute is still pending. 

Brokers are required to have a reasonable basis for recommending an investment according to FINRA Rule 2111. Investors who rely on their brokers for recommendations may be able to recover their losses through FINRA arbitration.

FINRA Rule 2111- Suitability

FINRA Rule 2111 defines suitable investments as securities that fit an investor’s profile. An investor’s profile includes information about their risk tolerance, financial goals, and age. 

• Investments can be unsuitable because they are high risk and likely to lose money, making them qualitatively unsuitable for many investors.
• Securities can be quantitatively unsuitable, which means that brokers executed an excessive number of trades.
• Securities may also be unsuitable because they are illiquid, meaning that they are intended to be held for an extended time, and investors may have to pay high fees to cash out.
• These requirements apply to the overall investment strategy as well as the investments themselves. For instance, an investment strategy might be unsuitable if the securities are over-concentrated in a particular stock or sector.
