Investor Dispute

On May 8, 2022, an investor alleged that Tammie Richardson misrepresented municipal bonds purchased in June and August 2020 by failing to make clear that these bonds were long-term investments that would not mature until the client turned 90. This dispute was denied by the firm.

However, investors should be aware that firms can deny disputes without an outside review. Investors can still pursue FINRA arbitration following a denial and may be able to recover their losses.

FINRA Rule 2020

FINRA Rule 2020 bans the use of manipulative, deceptive, and otherwise fraudulent tactics to influence the purchase and sale of securities. This includes the misrepresentation of an investment’s potential risks, limitations, and other features.
