Unsuitable advice occurs when a securities broker or financial advisor recommends investments that do not match a client's financial situation, objectives, risk tolerance, investment experience, or needs. Financial professionals are generally expected to understand their clients and make recommendations that are appropriate based on those circumstances.

For example, a conservative investor nearing retirement may not be suited for highly speculative investments that carry substantial risk. When recommendations are inconsistent with a client's profile, disputes may arise regarding whether the advice was suitable.
