Matthew Martin Howley

The securities fraud lawyers at Furgison Law Group are currently investigating claims against Bankoh Investment Services, Inc. (“Bankoh”), and financial advisor, Yoko K. Farias (“Farias”). The arbitration attorneys at Furgison Law Group are investigating claims of fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, failure to supervise, misrepresentations, omissions of material facts, conflict of interests, violations of state and federal securities laws, along with other broker misconduct. The claims relate to the sale of Northstar Financial Services (Bermuda) Ltd. (“Northstar Bermuda”) investments in Honolulu, Hawaii.

The Northstar Bermuda investments include the following products:

  • Global Advantage Select (“GAS”); and

  • Global Interest Accumulator (“GIA”)

Other Investors Have Already Filed FINRA Claims Regarding Northstar Bermuda

Other in investors in Hawaii have alleged that Bankoh broker Yoko Farias misrepresented that the Northstar Bermuda investments were safe, secure and liquid. In late 2018, Northstar Bermuda, was acquired by North Carolina-based conglomerate called Global Bankers. This company was ultimately owned by Greg Lindberg. Mr. Lindberg was subsequently indicted on corruption charges in his home state of North Carolina in early 2019.

Investors Have the Right to Recover Their Losses

When investments are sold by brokerage firms licensed by FINRA, they are subject to the laws that FINRA enforces. The brokerage firms are responsible for ensuring that their brokers are trading fairly, ethically and in the best interest of their clients. Ideally, they would accomplish this through careful supervision. Unfortunately, too often this supervision has been inadequate to fully protect investors. If you purchased any investments through a representative of a registered brokerage firm or an unlicensed salesperson and suffered losses through negligence or fraud, it immediately puts the brokerage firm at fault for failing to supervise their broker. Securities law then dictates that you can hold the firm legally liable to recover your damages.
