Investor Dispute

On March 3, 2023, an investor alleged that Mark Stivers failed to inform him of the illiquidity of investments made in 2014. The client sought $66,000 in damages but the dispute was denied by the firm.

However, investors should know that firms can deny disputes without an external review. Investors can still pursue FINRA arbitration after a denial and may be able to recover their funds.

FINRA Rule 2020 forbids the use of deceptive, manipulative, and otherwise fraudulent means of influencing investors’ decisions. Omitting information about an investment’s features, requirements, or other relevant information violates this rule.
