How Investors Can Recover Losses From GPB Capital

Most investors are unaware of losses by GPB Capital until they try to sell them. This is because they are private placements and this makes it very difficult to liquidate because there is not a stock exchange where investments are publicly traded daily.

The best choice and fastest way for investors to recover losses is to file a claim with their broker. Although complicated, an investment law firm can easily navigate the processes and help investors recover funds. This is because individual brokers, licensed under the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) are required to follow various rules, regulations, and laws when they recommend an investment product.

Haselhorn and Thibaut, P.A., a law firm that specializes in investment fraud, is currently investigating claims. Investors are encouraged to call 1 (888) 628-5590 for a free no obligation review of their situation.
