This dispute raises important questions for investors:
- Were your accounts managed according to your risk tolerance and investment objectives?
- Were all recommendations transparent, clearly explained, and truly in your best interest?
- Did you authorize the transactions, and do those records match your recollection?
- Did you feel pressured or misled into keeping your accounts with the advisor?
Understanding the Regulatory Standards: Protection for Investors
Advisors like Rebecca Perkins must comply with stringent industry requirements. Two critical benchmarks are:
- FINRA Rule 2111 (Suitability): Requires a broker to have a reasonable basis for recommendations based on a customer’s investment profile. All strategies must align with your needs, goals, risk tolerance, and financial situation.
- FINRA Rule 2010 (Commercial Honor & Fair Trade): Mandates high standards of commercial honor and fair dealing. This broad conduct rule covers many types of misconduct.
Even more importantly, Regulation Best Interest (Reg BI), enforced since June 30, 2020, requires:
- Disclosure Obligation: Clearly disclose all relevant facts, services, fees, and conflicts of interest.
- Care Obligation: Exercise diligence, skill, and care when making recommendations, considering the full context and available alternatives.
- Conflict of Interest Obligation: Identify, disclose, and mitigate any firm or advisor incentives that could disadvantage clients.
- Compliance Obligation: Maintain robust policies and procedures to ensure full adherence to Reg BI across all recommendations.
While not every account issue rises to the level of fraud or misconduct, any customer dispute, especially one denied by both the advisor and the firm, deserves careful review. Our firm investigates whether Reg BI, suitability, or other industry standards were breached. We use deep experience as former defense counsel to uncover what happened and fight for recovery of your losses if a violation occurred.
How Investors Can Protect Themselves: Verify, Document, Act
Protect your interests by following these fundamental steps:
- Review your account history for unexplained transactions, excessive risk, or persistent underperformance.
- Confirm written authorizations for all significant trades or strategy changes.
- Keep copies of all communications and formal statements from your advisor regarding recommendations or transfers.
- Monitor your advisor’s disclosures on BrokerCheck to stay informed of new disputes or enforcement actions.
