"Northstar was sold to Latin American investors and investors in China, Taiwan and Japan by US based brokerage firms as a guaranteed investment, "Attorney Jeffrey Erez stated while discussing the lawsuit. "These investors wanted highly regulated and stable investments offered by a U.S based brokerage firm. What they got was a high-risk offshore investment that is now in liquidation."
According to FINRA arbitration regulations, member brokerage firms can be held responsible for the actions of brokers who are registered with their firm.
"Northstar investors may be able to recover their losses against the brokerage firm that sold them the Northstar investment in a FINRA arbitration," Erez said. "This may be their recourse to recover their losses."
