KlaymanToskes Experience with Exchange-Traded Funds (“ETFs”)

Exchange Traded Fund (“ETF”) shares can be bought or sold on a stock exchange and are traded intraday, meaning they differ from mutual funds that trade at daily closing prices. ETFs can be passively or actively managed. While passive ETFs track an index, active ETFs are managed by financial professionals on the behalf of an investor, making them generally more expensive due to the commissions and other fees incurred by portfolio management.

If your broker or financial adviser recommended unsuitable ETFs, disregarded your risk-tolerance when making complex ETF investment recommendations, or over-concentrated your portfolio in too many ETFs, they may be responsible for any investment losses incurred.

Investors who suffered significant losses should contact attorney Lawrence L. Klayman to discuss legal options at (888) 997-9956 or lklayman@klaymantoskes.com. Consultations are free and every case is taken on a contingency basis, meaning we do not collect attorney’s fees unless we are able to obtain a financial recovery for you.
