Securities brokers have an obligation to their customers to always act in their best financial interests. This means that they are only supposed to recommend securities to investors that are suitable for them. They can determine this suitability by looking at factors like the customer's investment objectives, financial situation, and liquidity needs. Securities brokers cannot excuse themselves by claiming they were unaware that an investment was unsuitable.
