FINRA Slaps Fines on Bankers for Leverage/Inverse ETFs
FINRA today announced that it was fining four banks $9.1 million, claiming they failed to provide a reasonable basis for recommending certain leverage/inverse ETFs.
According to FINRA, investors have had difficulties because of the daily reset, leverage and compounding of these ETFs, which can be much different than a standard ETF and confusing to investors.
The banks that were sanctioned include Citigroup Global Markets, Morgan Stanley & Co., UBS Financial Services, and Wells Fargo Advisors.
