Ryan Hyslop Embroiled in Investor Dispute Alleging Misrepresentation

Ryan Hyslop (CRD #: 5693941), a broker and investment advisor registered with Prospera Financial Services, is involved in a pending investor dispute, according to his BrokerCheck record, accessed on April 12, 2022.

According to the allegations filed on January 28, 2022, Ryan Hyslop misrepresented an options trading strategy in 2020. 

Options are part of a complex trading strategy that must be managed carefully. Statistically, option contract investors are much more likely to lose their entire investment. 

FINRA Rule 2020 prohibits brokerage firms and stockbrokers from making material misrepresentations or inducing investors to purchase investments with false statements about their potential benefits. This unethical conduct also violates FINRA Rule 2010, which states that brokers must uphold high standards of commercial honor.

You might have a case against your broker or financial advisor if they recommended an options strategy that you didn’t comprehend or that resulted in significant losses.
