NEW YORK, NY, USA, June 20, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — National investment loss and securities attorneys KlaymanToskes continues investigating Centaurus Financial on behalf of its clients, after the brokerage firm’s unsuitable recommendations of GWG L Bonds caused a group of investors to suffer up to $500,000 in damages. The law firm urges all customers of Centaurus Financial who suffered investment losses in GWG L Bonds to contact the firm immediately at 888-997-9956.
KlaymanToskes reports the law firm has filed a FINRA arbitration claim (no. 24-01238) against Centaurus Financial, on the behalf of a group of investors who are seeking to recover up to $500,000 in investment losses, in connection with being recommended to invest in unsuitable and illiquid GWG L Bond investments.
According to the lawsuit filed by KlaymanToskes, the customers are a group of unsophisticated investors, including retirees, whose objective was to invest in low risk, fixed income investments that would provide income while protecting their principal. Centaurus Financial represented to the customers that GWG L Bonds were safe, income producing bonds that would provide safety of principal.
As the GWG L Bonds were illiquid and unlisted, there were significant risks that were not disclosed to the customers. In April 2022, GWG Holdings, Inc. filed for bankruptcy, suspending their monthly dividends and leaving investors without access to their principal. GWG L bondholders are owed over $1.3 billion, however, GWG’s ability to monetize its assets remains highly uncertain and unlikely.
Most recently, on January 29, 2024, financials were filed with the bankruptcy court by the GWG Wind Down Trustee which confirmed that L bondholders will only receive a small fraction of their investments from the bankruptcy. Accordingly, it is in bondholders’ best legal interest to maximize their recovery of losses by filing FINRA arbitration claims against the brokerage firms and financial advisors who sold these unsuitable products, such as Centaurus Financial.
Current and former customers of Centaurus Financial who suffered investment losses in GWG L Bonds and/or any other investments are encouraged to contact attorney Steven D. Toskes, Esq. at (888) 997-9956 or by email at investigations@klaymantoskes.com in furtherance of our investigation.
