Meyer Wilson is currently investigating claims against Newbridge Securities broker Scott Brooks of San Clemente, California for the inappropriate sale of GPB Capital Funds to his customers.
Brooks’s employing brokerage firm, Newbridge Securities Corporation, approved the sale of a series of limited partnerships issued by GPB Capital Holdings, including GPB Automotive Portfolio, to its customers. What Newbridge should have easily uncovered during the due diligence process for the GPB funds should have precluded them it selling GPB funds to its customers entirely. GPB was riddled with irreconcilable red flags, such as conflicts of interest, questionable funding, and insanely high costs to investors and commissions to the brokers who sold it.
