Did Brent Burgesser Cause You Investment Losses?
Brent Burgesser of Chandler, Arizona allegedly effected 83 unsuitable mutual fund switches in the accounts of several customers, resulting in more than $63,700 in customer losses. Mutual fund “switching” is the process of transferring an investment from one fund to another, sometimes for good reason and other times to defraud clients. According to FINRA, Mr. Burgesser executed numerous mutual fund “switches” without having reasonable grounds for believing that such transactions were suitable for his customers. FINRA found that the former Wells Fargo representative generated approximately $109,500 in ill-gotten commissions for himself as a result of excessive mutual fund “switching.” Mr. Burgesser was suspended from association with any FINRA member for a period of 60 days and ordered to pay a $5,000 fine.
