FINRA requires brokers and brokerage firms to report customer complaints, disputes, and regulatory sanctions. In addition, brokers must disclose certain financial matters such as bankruptcies, judgments, and liens.
Alternative Investments: These are assets that are not stocks, bonds or cash. Alternative investments generally fall within five categories: hedge funds, private capital, natural resources (oil and gas, energy), real estate (REITs) and infrastructure. They are typically less liquid that conventional investments, less regulated with higher fees and generally higher risk. For more investigations involving Alternative Investments, see this.
