Broker Negligence

Securities brokers are expected to perform their duties adequately. This is because when brokers handle their customers' accounts negligently, said customers can experience serious financial harm. This is because broker negligence can very easily lead to investors being placed in investments they are not financially suited for. It can also lead to brokers making negligent misrepresentations and/or omissions when disclosing financial information to their customers. This of course can lead to investors making financial decisions based on misinformation.
