Misrepresentation

Misrepresentation occurs whenever a securities broker provides their customer with information that has been falsified in some manner. This act can occur by accident, through the broker’s own negligence, or on purpose, through some intent to defraud the customer in some fashion. Regardless of the broker’s intent, misrepresentation can cause significant financial harm to investors. This is because it can cause investors to make crucial financial decisions based on misinformation.
