Investor Alleges Shane Gold Misrepresented Variable Annuity
Shane Gold (CRD #: 6697274), a broker registered with J.P. Morgan Securities, was the subject of a recent dispute, according to his BrokerCheck record, accessed on September 5, 2022. If you have questions about his conduct as a broker, read on.
Investor Dispute
On June 10, 2022, an investor alleged that Shane Gold misrepresented a variable annuity on May 19, 2022. The client sought $58,679.81 in damages but was denied by the firm. Variable annuities are complex investments that often do not work in an investor’s best interests.
Investors should know, however, that firms can deny disputes without an external review. Investors can still seek out FINRA arbitration after a denial and potentially recover their funds.
FINRA Rule 2020
The misrepresentation of investments violates FINRA Rule 2020, which bans the use of deceptive, manipulative, and otherwise fraudulent tactics to influence the purchase and sale of securities.
