Sean McCabe Facing Investor Disputes Alleging Unsuitable Investments

Oct 8, 2021 Investor Disputes

Sean McCabe (CRD #: 5479643), a broker registered with Network 1 Financial Securities in Hauppage, NY, is facing a new investor dispute, according to his BrokerCheck record, accessed on September 28, 2021. This dispute features similar allegations as the five other settled disputes on his record.

On July 13, 2021, an investor alleged that Sean McCabe recommended investments that were both quantitatively and qualitatively unsuitable.

  • Quantitively unsuitable investments mean that the broker executed an excessive number of transactions, incurring too many fees for the portfolio to generate a return for the investor.
  • Qualitatively unsuitable investments are investments that do not meet criteria specific to the investor, including their risk tolerance and financial goals.

The investor is seeking $330,113; the dispute is pending.
