Investor Alert: Zona Energy Inc. 

Investor Alert: Zona Energy Inc., featured by top securities fraud attorneys, The White Law Group

Did your Broker Recommend an Investment in Zona Energy Inc.?

The White Law Group is investigating the liability that brokerage firms may have for improperly selling high-risk energy investments, like Zona Energy Inc., to its clients. 

Zona Energy, Inc., formed in 2018, is in the independent oil and natural gas industry focused on the acquisition, development, exploration and exploitation of unconventional, onshore oil and natural gas reserves in the Permian Basin in West Texas, according to its website.

The company reportedly filed a form D to raise capital from investors in 2018. The total offering amount sold was purportedly $3,000,000.

Unfortunately, some brokers may have downplayed the risks associated with oil and gas private placement investments. They may have misled investors into thinking that they are “safe” investment products. The high sales commission brokers earned for selling such products may provide some brokers with enough incentive to push the product to unsuspecting investors. 

The energy market has seen enormous losses over the last few years due to the declining cost of oil and other energy commodities.?These investments?may?seem?wise?at first, until the dramatic drop in?distributions. 

Prior to making recommendations to an individual investor, brokerage firms are required by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) to disclose all the risks of an investment. Recommendations should only be made if the investment is suitable for an individual investor given their age, investment objections, investment experience and risk tolerance.

If a broker misleads a client or makes unsuitable investment recommendations they can be liable for investment losses.
