Overland Park, Kansas Securities Attorney For Variable Annuities Investment Disputes

Did VSR Financial Services Cause You Investment Losses? VSR Financial Services, Inc., headquartered in Overland Park, Kansas, submitted a Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent (AWC) to FINRA for failing to adequately supervise the sales of variable annuities, specifically L-share variable annuities. FINRA found VSR Financial Services failed to establish, maintain, and enforce an adequate supervisory system to identify red flags related to the sale of L-share variable annuities.

According to FINRA, the L-share annuities are a complex investment product that is only suitable for a narrow class of investors and that VSR Financial Services allegedly failed to provide its registered representatives with appropriate guidance to discern this class of investor. FINRA found VSR Financial Services approved 692 L-share variable annuity contracts which had a long-term income rider, an investment which has conflicting time horizons. FINRA goes on to state that in many cases, the customer purchasing the L-share variable annuity had a long-term investment horizon of over seven years. This fact was a red flag that a different investment with lower fees would be more suitable for the customer.
