Current and Past Disclosure Information

While records from regulatory authorities such as FINRA BrokerCheck indicate no history of concluded customer complaints, regulatory actions, or criminal disclosures, it is important to understand the pending customer complaints disclosed in his record as of January 2026.
Ehud Gersten – Complaints: What Investors Should Know
Three pending investor complaints raise relevant questions for investors and those considering working with Mr. Gersten:
| Complaint Date | Brokerage Association | Allegations | Claimed Damages | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| November 2025 | Emerson Equity | Recommended unsuitable investments, made misleading statements, violated Regulation Best Interest, misrepresented/omitted material facts | $1,083,919 | Pending |
| 2025 | Arkadios Capital, Emerson Equity | Negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, violated Regulation Best Interest | $100,000 | Pending |
| November 2025 | Arkadios Capital | Breach of fiduciary duty, negligence, violated Regulation Best Interest | $600,000 | Pending |
While these cases have not yet been resolved, their presence is significant because they involve allegations of unsuitable recommendations, misrepresentations, negligence, and violations of SEC’s Regulation Best Interest. Regulation Best Interest requires advisors to put clients’ interests ahead of their own and to disclose any conflicts of interest they may have. Pending litigation may impact investors’ confidence, regardless of outcomes.
Regulatory and Financial Record Review
According to all currently available public records:
- No regulatory sanctions—no suspensions, fines, or state or federal regulator actions have been issued against Ehud Gersten.
- No civil or criminal charges—a broad review of federal and state court dockets shows no lawsuits, criminal cases, or federal actions involving Gersten as a defendant.
- No bankruptcy or tax liens—neither UCC filings nor bankruptcy court records reflect actions against him.
This information suggests a clear legal and regulatory record as of this writing; however, the pending complaints represent important investor red flags that should not be overlooked.
Investor Red Flags: What You Should Consider
- Pending multi-million dollar complaints—large alleged losses may indicate significant risks or failures in duty-of-care.
- Allegations involving Regulation Best Interest—central to investor protection, violations may undermine clients’ trust and financial outcomes.
- Misrepresentation and suitability concerns—these can lead to severe financial consequences for affected investors.
- Diversified employment history—numerous firm associations in a relatively short period are sometimes factors an investor should evaluate when selecting a long-term advisor.
