Horizontal Fund I LTD – Securities Investigation

Horizontal Fund I LTD

Investigating Potential Claims – Horizontal Fund I LTD

Are you concerned about your investment in Horizontal Fund I LTD? If so, the securities attorneys at The White Law Group may be able to help you by filing a FINRA Arbitration claim against the brokerage firm that sold you the investment.

HORIZONTAL EXPLORATION LLC engages in the exploration and production of oil and gas, according to Bloomberg. It operates various vertical oil and gas wells in Appalachian Basin. The company was founded in 2011 and is based in Indiana, Pennsylvania.

According to SEC filings, Horizontal Exploration, LLC filed a Form D to raise capital from investors in 2013 in Indiana, PA. The total offering amount was $10,000,000 for “General and limited partnership interests in Horizontal Fund I, Ltd.”

Investments such as these are typically sold by brokerage firms in exchange for a large up front commission. High fees can range from 7-10%, as well as additional “due diligence fees” that can range from 1-3%.

The problem with private placement investments such as Horizontal Fund I LTD is that they typically involve a high degree of risk. They are also often sold as unregistered securities which lack the same regulatory oversight as more traditional investment products like stocks or bonds.

Investigating Potential Claims

The White Law Group is investigating the liability that FINRA registered brokerage firms may have for unsuitably recommending high-risk private placements, like Horizontal Fund I LTD to investors.

Despite the risks of investing in private placements, brokerage firms continue to push this type of investment because of the high commissions associated with their sale and creation.
