Shepherd Smith Edwards and Kantas Continue to Investigate Oppenheimer PEP Losses. Contact Our Savvy Margin Abuse Attorneys To Request Your Free Case Consultation

If you are someone whose Oppenheimer financial advisor marketed and recommended the brokerage firm’s Portfolio Enhancement Program (PEP), and you have since suffered related investment losses, Shepherd Smith Edwards and Kantas (investorlawyers.com) would like to talk to you. Unfortunately, it seems that a significant number of wealthy investors may not have been fully apprised of the risks involved in this proprietary program.

Oppenheimer PEP is now closed but not before investors reportedly suffered serious losses. Marketed as a hedged investment that provided a chance for participants to supposedly make an additional 5% if they borrowed money on margin, the minimum investment allowed was $1.25M. Many who got involved thought they were giving themselves a chance to generate a passive stream of income.

If you suffered significant losses after your broker unsuitably recommended that you borrow or buy on margin, please contact Shepherd Smith Edwards and Kantas (investorlawyers.com) today. Using a margin account to increase capital and returns is incredibly risky and unsuitable for most novice and retail investors. Depending on your financial goals, age, and risk tolerance level, it may not even be appropriate for you even if you are a wealthy investor. That said, it can also be an appropriate and very profitable investing strategy for certain sophisticated investors who can handle a high level of risk.
