The San Francisco Bay Area is known as a hub for different kinds of institutional investors, including private equity companies, venture capital firms, mutual funds, endowments, foundations, public pensions, multi-family offices, wealth managers, and philanthropic foundations. While institutional investors are considered sophisticated investors, that doesn’t mean that they won’t ever need to hire a brokerage firm to help them with certain aspects of doing their job: making large trades, obtaining the best share prices, securing certain types of market access, obscuring trades from public knowledge, valuation or clearing support and more.
Unfortunately, like retail investors, institutional investors can fall victim to bad brokers and negligent financial advisors. When this happens, not only is the entity affected, but so are the workers, retirees, policy holders, shareholders, taxpayers, or investors whose money it is managing.
