FINRA Arbitration Claim Filed Against National Securities and Dominick Ciocia

KlaymanToskes Represents Retired GWG L Bond Investor Seeking Recovery

GWG Holdings, Inc. (OTCMKTS:GWGHQ)

BOCA RATON, FL, US, August 18, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- A retired blue collar worker has filed a $100,000 FINRA claim (Case No. 22-01806) against National Securities Corporation and broker Dominick Anthony Ciocia to recover damages sustained in GWG Holdings, Inc. (OTCMKTS: GWGHQ) L Bonds.

Prior to retirement, the investor was invited by a friend to attend a dinner hosted by Ciocia. Following the dinner, the investor hired Ciocia as his accountant. As their relationship developed and the investor prepared for retirement, he turned to Ciocia and National Securities to help him manage his IRA. The investor sought low risk, fixed income investments to support him and his wife through their retirement years. With this directive, National and Ciocia solicited him to invest in alternative investments including the high-risk, illiquid GWG L Bonds.

In addition to the GWG L Bonds, National also recommended additional alternative investments to the Claimant, including Greenbacker Renewable Energy. According to securities attorney Lawrence L. Klayman, Esq., “Brokerage firms and their financial advisors should not overconcentrate their clients’ portfolios in illiquid, alternative investments. Here, the investor’s portfolio was 60% concentrated in illiquid, alternative investments, and therefore, was unsuitable. The best interests of the client must be considered before a recommendation is made. Additionally, the brokerage firm has a responsibility to conduct adequate due diligence on any investment product sold to customers. It is clear that National and Ciocia failed in their responsibilities.”
