As a result of high oil prices over the past few years, there has been a heightened interest in investments in oil and gas using MLPs. Now with the drop in the price of oil and gas, investors who may have been looking for conservative investments without significant risk are facing substantial drops in their portfolios.\u00a0 Investors are further discovering that conflicts of interest between the investment bank, trading desk, and individual advisor influenced stockbroker&#8217;s recommendations.<\/p>\n<p>These alternative investments in oil and gas typical take the form of Master Limited Partnerships (\u201cMLPs\u201d). These types of alternative investments have historically been extremely risky investments that demand a careful suitability analysis and due diligence by financial processionals before they are recommended to the public.\u00a0 More often than not, broker-dealers and brokers are enamored with these types of investments because they, like other alternative investments, also tend to pay high commissions.<\/p>\n<p>In a recent Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (\u201cFINRA\u201d) arbitration proceeding, RBC Capital Markets and its broker Bruce Cameron were ordered to pay a former client $723,000 for losses sustained from investing in MLPs. The claims included overconcentration in unsuitable investments (MLPs), negligence, and failure to supervise. Cameron was registered with the RBC Massachusetts office.<\/p>\n<div class=\"read_more_link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.silverlaw.com\/blog\/silver-law-group-investigating-claims-rbc-capital-markets-broker-bruce-cameron-unsuitable-investments-oil-gas-master-limited-partnerships-mlps\/\"  title=\"Continue Reading Silver Law Group is Investigating Claims Against RBC Capital Markets Broker Bruce Cameron for Unsuitable Investments in Oil and Gas Master Limited Partnerships (MLPs)\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading \u203a<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Silver Law Group continues to investigate investments in oil, gas, and energy companies made by clients through master limited partnerships (\u201cMLPs\u201d) at the recommendation of their brokers.
