What Are the Advanced Technology Select Funds?

The Advanced Technology Select Funds are a series of private placement alternative investment funds offered pursuant to Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933. These funds are typically structured as limited liability companies and are not traded on any public exchange, meaning investors may be unable to sell or liquidate their investments for extended periods of time.

These offerings may have been marketed to investors as providing access to pre-IPO or private technology companies, but such investments carry heightened risk, limited transparency, and significant liquidity restrictions.

According to KlaymanToskes’ investigation, investors were recommended investments in multiple Advanced Technology Select Fund series, including:

  • Advanced Technology Select Fund XV
  • Advanced Technology Select Fund XIX
  • Advanced Technology Select Fund XX
  • Advanced Technology Select Fund XXI
  • Advanced Technology Select Fund XXIII

What Are the Risks of Investing in Advanced Technology Select Funds?

Advanced Technology Select Funds are considered high-risk, illiquid, private placement investments. Risks associated with these offerings may include:

  • Illiquidity – Investors may be unable to sell or access their principal for many years, if ever
  • Speculative Nature – Investments often depend on the success of early-stage or private companies
  • Lack of Transparency – Limited public information and infrequent valuation updates
  • High Fees and Commissions – Sales incentives may reduce net returns and create conflicts of interest
  • Overconcentration Risk – Placing too much of a portfolio into alternative investments can magnify losses

Investment firms may be held liable for any losses incurred by their customers in the event of unsuitable investment recommendations,misrepresentations or omissions of material facts, and/or anoverconcentration of the customer’s portfolio in one particular investment, class, or market sector, as well as failure to conduct adequate due diligence on investment offerings recommended by the firm and failing to act in the best interest of the customer.

Advanced Technology Select Funds Investment Losses

Potential conflicts of interest may arise when issuers incentivize brokers/investment advisors with substantial commissions to promote their financial products. A problem often associated with private placement investment recommendations is the high sales commissions brokers typically earn for selling these investments. A representative that recommends investments for the purpose of being compensated through increased commissions, and enriches themselves rather than benefiting the client, is violating securities laws

Can I File a Lawsuit to Recover Losses?

To recover investment losses, you do not go through the traditional court system with a lawsuit. The only remedy is through a FINRA arbitration, a specific process designed for these types of disputes. This process involves presenting your case to a panel set by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), not a courtroom. This approach is streamlined and focused on investment disputes, making it a suitable and effective way for investors to seek compensation for losses caused by financial advisors or brokerage firms.

What is a FINRA Arbitration Claim?

FINRA (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) is a self-regulatory organization that oversees brokers and brokerages. In the event of a dispute between an investor and their financial advisor, investors can choose to file a FINRA arbitration claim. FINRA is overseen by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The arbitration process is designed to be much faster than the court system and allows both parties to present their case before a panel of arbitrators. The arbitrators will then decide how to resolve the dispute, including ordering the advisor to pay damages for any losses suffered by the investor.

If you suffered Advanced Technology Select Funds losses or other investment losses, you are encouraged to contact attorney Lawrence L. Klayman, Esq., at 888-997-9956 or by email at investigations@klaymantoskes.com to discuss recovery options. We do not collect attorney’s fees unless we are able to obtain a financial recovery for you.

Signs Investors Should Look Out For About Their Brokerage Accounts

As an investor, there are signs that you should look out for if you believe you have a claim against your broker/advisor for unsuitable investment recommendations in Advanced Technology Select Funds. These signs could potentially indicate misconduct, negligence, or investment fraud. Investors are encouraged to contact our firm immediately if you have experienced any of the following: 

  • You have substantial losses in your investment accounts
  • You received a call, email, or other communication from your broker’s supervisor or manager regarding your portfolio
  • Your broker misrepresented investment opportunities, or failed to disclose details about investments 
  • You notice unauthorized transactions in your investment accounts
  • Your broker is not returning your calls or emails
  • You filed a complaint with your brokerage firm that has not been resolved
  • You see a mistake on your statement, or receive a fraudulent statement

Some investors have close relationships with their brokers due to the time and trust built over the course of their investment relationship. However, it is crucial to remember that financial decisions should be based on careful analysis and due diligence rather than solely relying on personal relationships.
