Broker Susan Welo Involved In Investor Disputes
Soreide Law Group is looking into potential investor disputes against securities broker Susan Welo [CRD#: 1884407, Mayville, North Dakota]. Apparently, North Dakota Securities Department brought a Cease and Desist action against the securities broker, who worked for Cetera Advisor Networks and Securities America. Not only that, but Welos' clients made complaints about her sales practices. It appears that among other things, Welo allegedly withheld or misrepresented troubling information relating to investments that she sold or recommended. Here is a brief summary of the allegations against Welo:
Client of Securities America Files Dispute Indicating Susan Welo Gave Bad Advice
A Securities America client brought FINRA Arbitration #: 20-01173 on April 9, 2020.

Secondly, the client alleged that Welo misrepresented information about BDCs. Thirdly, Welo supposedly acted in breach of contract and in breach of a fiduciary duty. Finally, the client suggested that Welo or Securities America violated North Dakota Securities Act. For this reason, the client seeks compensatory relief in this ongoing matter.
