Being an investor comes with certain assumptions of risk. You could experience financial gains or losses when you invest. It is not a reasonable assumption, however, that a financial advisor or broker will engage in investment fraud. Securities fraud is a crime that could entitle you to compensation from the at-fault party or parties.
