Michael Rudio is the subject of two customer disputes related to allegations that he recommended unsuitable investments in structured products while registered with LPL Financial LLC.
- In FINRA Case No. 23-03650, filed on December 28, 2023, claimants alleged that between December 2020 and November 2021, Rudio recommended unsuitable investments in structured products. The case settled for $18,500 on January 20, 2025.
- In pending FINRA arbitration (Case No. 25-00161) filed on January 23, 2025, alleging unsuitable structured product recommendations and breach of fiduciary duty. Damages are currently unspecified.
