Investment Losses

The general rule for the recovery of investment losses is that if these losses were caused by a financial advisor's misconduct then they are recoverable but, if not, these losses are simply a market risk that all investors are exposed to and for which no one can be held responsible.

To help investors decide whether they have an actionable, meritorious claim for reimbursement of their investment losses Robert Goldin, an investment dispute consultant, has compiled a list of 244 instances of broker misconduct giving rise to investor losses.

All investors need to do to find out if they have a claim is to simply consult this list to see whether the circumstances giving rise to their investment losses are listed. The list is at http://www.macgold.ca.
