Date: March 03, 2009
Category: Customer Dispute
Allegations: 10/07-2/09; CLIENTS STATE THEY TOLD FA IN 10/07 THEY WANTED TO RETIRE IN 2009 AND WERE NOT COMFORTABLE WITH HAVING SO MUCH INVESTED IN THE STOCK MARKET. CLIENTS STATE THEY TOLD FA THEY WANTED TO MOVE A LARGE CHUNK OF WHAT THEY HAD IN THE STOCK MARKET TO SAFER INVESTMENTS AND STATED THE FA ARGUED WITH THEM AND BASICALLY REFUSED TO DO WHAT THEY WANTED. CLIENTS STATE AS THE MARKET BEGAN TO DECLINE, FA DID NOT RECOMMEND MAKING ANY CHANGES AND ADVISED THEM IT WAS THE WRONG TIME TO MAKE CHANGES. CLIENTS STATE BECAUSE OF THIS, THEY HAVE LOST CLOSE TO $100,000.
Damage Amount Requested: $5,000.00
Broker Comment: FA HAS INDICATED WHEN THE MARKET BEGAN TO DECLINE; SHE CONTACTED THE CLIENTS TO SCHEDULE A REVIEW OF THE ACCOUNTS AND RECALLS THE WIFE CONTACTING HER TO MAKE SOME CHANGES. FA HAS STATED SHE RECOMMENDED HOLDING THE CURRENT INVESTMENTS, BUT DID MAKE THE CHANGES THE WIFE REQUESTED AND CONTENDS SHE NEVER REFUSED ANY INSTRUCTIONS TO MAKE CHANGES. FA DOES, HOWEVER, STATE SHE DID DISCUSS MARKET CYCLES, RECESSIONS AND CONFIRMED THE CLIENT'S EXPECTATIONS OF RETURN. ADDITIONALLY, THE FA STATED SHE RECONFIRMED THE CLIENT'S FINANCIAL GOALS AND HAS INDICATED THE WIFE WAS SATISFIED WITH THE CHANGES MADE AND THAT THE CLIENTS WOULD CALL IF THEY DESIRED A MORE FORMAL REVIEW. FA HAS STATED SHE AGAIN MADE CONTACT AND ATTEMPTED TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO DISCUSS THE CDS THAT HAD MATURED IN THE CLIENT'S ACCOUNT. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, IT IS OUR UNDERSTANDING THE CLIENT'S TRANSFERRED THEIR ACCOUNTS TO ANOTHER EDJ FA. UPON REVIEW OF THE INVESTMENTS THAT ARE HELD IN THE ACCOUNTS, THEY DO NOT APPEAR TO BE OUTSIDE OF THE SCOPE OF THE INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES LISTED ON THE ACCOUNTS. WHILE WE UNDERSTAND THE CLIENT'S DISAPPOINTMENT WITH THE PERFORMANCE OF THE PORTFOLIOS, IT DOES APPEAR THE DECLINES ARE ATTRIBUTED TO MARKET FLUCTUATION WHICH IS A RISK ASSOCIATED WITH INVESTING. IN CLOSING, BASED ON OUR INVESTIGATION, IT IS OUR FIRM'S OPINION IF THE CLIENT BELIEVED THE FA DID NOT FOLLOW THEIR 2007 INSTRUCTIONS, THE CLIENTS WOULD HAVE CONTACTED OUR FIRM AT THAT TIME, THEREFORE, THE REQUEST FOR COMPENSATION WAS DENIED.
