A breach of fiduciary duty regarding bond trading occurs when a securities broker or financial advisor fails to act in the client’s best interests. This can include recommending bonds that do not match the client’s financial goals, exposing clients to unnecessary risks, or failing to disclose important details about the bonds being purchased. When fiduciaries do not uphold these obligations, investors may unknowingly face losses they should have been protected from.
Particularly, on September 5, 2025, a Wedbush Securities Inc. client filed FINRA Arbitration No. 25-01850 about Jonathan Malinger. Primarily, the client alleged that Malinger committed financial elder abuse, breached his fiduciary duty, and was negligent. The claim also alleged violations of California law and FINRA rules and regulations. Because of this, the client allegedly experienced damages linked to corporate bonds and municipal bonds. As a result, the client requested compensation from Wedbush Securities Inc. or Malinger. It appears that this arbitration is awaiting a resolution.
