GPB Capital Holdings – Securities Fraud Investigation

CHICAGO - May 9, 2019 - PRLog -- The White Law Group is currently representing investors in claims involving unsuitable recommendations of GPB Capital Holdings investments.

GPB Capital Holdings has reportedly raised $1.8 billion from accredited investors through private placement investments in the auto dealership industry and the waste management industry.

The company is currently under investigation by the SEC and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), and in March the FBI reportedly showed up at the GPB offices with a warrant to gather information and documents.

Further, GPB has failed again to file financials for two of the offerings, GPB Holdings II and GPB Automotive Portfolio, LP, leaving investors wondering what is going on with their money.

The White Law Group is investigating potential claims involving broker-dealers who may have unsuitably recommended the following GPB Capital Holdings, among others:

GPB Holdings LP
GPB Holdings II
GPB Holdings III
GPB Automotive Portfolio LP
GPB Waste Management, LP (Armada Waste Management, LP)
GPB NYC Development LP

Generally speaking, private placements are not subject to some of the laws and regulations that are designed to protect investors.  Private and public companies engage in private placements to raise funds from investors.

If an investment firm makes unsuitable recommendations to its client such as a high risk private placement investments and breaches its fiduciary duties it may be held liable for investment losses.
