Firms cannot assess suitability, conduct due diligence on offerings, or monitor for fraud when representatives facilitate investments without firm knowledge. Oil and gas drilling investments are often high-risk, speculative investments that may not be suitable for many investors, particularly when structured as promissory notes from companies with uncertain cash flows. The fact that Kelly arranged for customers to liquidate firm account holdings to fund these investments raises additional suitability concerns.
