Ramesh Madhusudan

CRD#5389923

Silver Law Group is investigating Miami Florida-based Raymond James Financial Services broker Ramesh Madhusudan, after a customer filed a FINRA complaint alleging unsuitability and negligent supervision with alleged damages of $9,000,000

According to FINRA’s BrokerCheck report on Madhusudan, a complaint alleging unsuitable recommendations, breach of fiduciary duty and churning was filed in March of 2016. Damages are alleged at $9,000,000 and the complaint is currently pending FINRA arbitration.

Among other investment tenets, brokers are required to recommend suitable investments to their clients. This requires that the broker: Investigates and conducts due diligence into the investment’s attributes including its benefits, risks, tax consequences, and other relevant factors to form a reasonable basis for the recommendation of the product; and appropriately matches the investment with the customer’s specific investment needs and objectives, such as the customer’s retirement status, long or short-term goals, age, disability, income needs, or any other relevant factors.

The misrepresentation or omission of material facts concerning investment recommendations by a brokerage firm and its representatives may be a cause of action in a FINRA arbitration claim for damages. There are two types of misrepresentations and omissions; those that are fraudulent and those that are negligent.

Misrepresentations often occur during the offering process or prior to investing in a particular product.  Misrepresentation can vary in appearance and, if made intentionally, are often times made in order to induce an unwitting investor to invest.  An example of a misrepresentation can include promises of high dividends or that the company of the underlying investment will go public in a year.

If proven, an intentional misrepresentation can have serious consequences, as it is a violation of Rule 10b-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Often times, unsuitability is accompanied by churning.  Churning occurs when the account is frequently traded for no apparent reason but to generate fees and commissions.
