What Does This Mean?
Securities brokers have an obligation to their customers to only recommend securities that they would be financially suited for. These brokers can determine if an investment is suitable by analyzing pertinent financial information provided to them that is specific to the customer. This includes the customer’s investment objectives, financial situation, risk tolerance, and liquidity needs. Brokers who invest their customers contrary to their specific factors, whether fraudulently or negligently, lack the ability to perform the duties to the necessary standard required for their position.
