Overconcentration

Diversification is a key component to a balanced, profitable investment portfolio. The market is constantly in flux. If a broker invests all or a large portion of your financial security in one product or sector, the potential for you to lose vast sums of money increases dramatically.

Brokers and financial advisors owe a duty to their clients to ensure client investments are spread across asset classes, industry sectors and securities in accordance with the individual circumstances and financial goals of each client. Overconcentration occurs when a broker places undue emphasis on one type of investment or security resulting in significant loss to the investor. Your broker and brokerage firm may be held liable for any losses resulting from overconcentration.
