UBS ETRACS Wells Fargo MLP Index Exchange-Traded Notes

UBS ETRACS Wells Fargo MLP Index Exchange-Traded Notes Investment Losses

Have you suffered losses investing in UBS ETRACS Wells Fargo MLP Index Exchange-Traded Notes?  If so, the securities attorneys of The White Law Group may be able to help you recover your losses in a FINRA arbitration claim against the brokerage firm that recommended the investment.

UBS ETRACS Exchange-Traded Notes (ETN) are senior, unsecured, unsubordinated debt securities issued by UBS AG.  They are designed to track the total returns of various market benchmark indices, providing exposure to stocks, bonds, commodities, master limited partnerships, currencies, and alternative strategies, less investor fees.  The returns are linked to the performance of an index or strategy, less investor fees.  The UBS ETRACS Wells Fargo MLP Index Exchange-Traded Notes are designed to track an investment in the Wells Fargo® Master Limited Partnership Index, and pay a variable quarterly coupon linked to the cash distributions associated with the underlying MLP constituents, less investor fees.

Crude oil prices have crashed over the last several months, bringing the Energy Sector down with it.  Over the last three months, the Wells Fargo® Master Limited Partnership Index is down 13.78%.

Structured products, like Exchange-Traded Notes, are extremely complex and risky.  They are only suitable for wealthy, sophisticated retail investors or institutional investors.

Brokerage firms that sell such products are required to perform adequate due diligence on the investments to ensure a reasonable likelihood of success, and to evaluate whether the investments are suitable in light of the client’s age, net worth, investment experience, and investment objectives.  Firms that fail to perform adequate due diligence, or that make unsuitable recommendations, can be held responsible for losses in a FINRA arbitration claim.
