Investors Allege They Were Misled About Promissory Notes

The two customer disputes on Chu’s record both allege that clients were “misled into purchasing promissory notes”.

Promissory notes are a promise to repay investment money in a series of payments based on certain factors. They may be described as safer than investing in the stock market, but promissory notes can involve high risk.

Investment advisers sometimes like to sell promissory notes because they earn a higher commission from them than from other investments. Cases of investors not being paid back the money they invested in promissory notes and feeling that their adviser misled them are not uncommon.
