Investor Dispute

On December 28, 2022, an investor alleged that Brady Fuchs overconcentrated them in unsuitably illiquid investments. The client seeks $50,000 in damages in this pending dispute.

FINRA Rule 2111

FINRA Rule 2111 requires that brokers tailor their investment recommendations to an investor’s profile.

Securities may be unsuitable for an investor because they are high-risk or lacking in liquidity. Illiquid investments can be difficult to sell on short notice and selling them too soon can come with high fees, making them unsuitable for some investors.

Investments can also be quantitatively unsuitable. When a broker executes an excessive number of trades, they generate fees and commissions that can severely reduce clients’ returns.

Suitability also applies to investment strategies. For instance, overconcentration is frequently an unsuitable investment strategy due to the level of risk involved.

Investors who rely on their broker for recommendations may be able to recoup their losses through FINRA arbitration.

Tax Liens

From 2016-2021, Brady Fuchs was subject to a total of $167,957.25 in tax liens.
