Oppenheimer向客户支付380万美元支付单位投资信托汇票费

FINRA命令Oppenheimer支付380万美元

Oppenheimer&Co。(OPY)必须向可能必须为其联合投资信托(UITS)的早期翻车支付超额销售费用的客户支付超过380万美元的赔偿金。该订单来自金融行业监管机构(FINRA),包括$ 80万美元的罚款,无法合理监督这些早期UIT翻车。

The self-regulatory organization (SRO) contends that from 1/2011 to 12/2015 of the $6.4B of United Investment Trust transactions that Oppenheimer executed, $753.9M of these were early rollovers.

什么是单位投资信托?

UITs allow investors to have a stake in a set portfolio of securities that end on a certain maturity date. They are usually long-term investments with maturity dates of up to 2 years. An investor that rolls over a UIT earlier than the maturity date may end up having to pay higher sales charges. This means such a course of action may not be suitable for every type of investor.

According to FINRA, Oppenheimer did not properly监督这些翻滚交易和经纪交易商缺乏一种监督系统,该系统的设计方式足够合理,可以准确监督早期的单位投资信托转售是否适合客户。

由于这一监督不足,SRO认为,Oppenheimer客户可能已收取超过380万美元的销售费用,如果他们登上UIT,直到他们达到成熟日期,他们就不必支付。

不合适的UIT建议

一位经纪人建议客户选择早期的UIT转盘,并可能指责交易导致过多和不必要的费用,并指控不适合投资者的最大利益。如果此举不适合他们,他们的投资组合以及他们可以承担的风险程度,则尤其如此。

同时,经纪公司应该适当监督其经纪人以及他们推荐和授权的交易。
