LPL Financial Investor Accused Robinson Of Unsuitable Recommendations

Evidently, the client alleged that Robinson made unsuitable recommendations between 2018 and 2024 involving real estate investment trusts (REITs).

What Does Unsuitable Advice Involving REITS Mean?
Unsuitable advice regarding alternative investments such as non-traded REITs typically refers to a securities broker recommending products that do not match the investor’s risk tolerance, investment objectives, or financial needs. Non-traded REITs, for instance, are illiquid and carry unique risks. If a financial advisor fails to properly disclose these characteristics or recommends them to an investor who cannot withstand the associated risks, the advice may be deemed unsuitable. Such practices can lead to considerable financial losses, especially for investors who require liquidity or have low risk tolerance.
