Northstar Financial Services (Bermuda) Investors Suffer Losses
Northstar Financial Services (Bermuda) has declared bankruptcy and was recently ordered into liquidation by the Bermuda government. Its owner Greg Lindberg is in prison and likely misappropriated funds from this company and funneled them into his other companies. There is not much left for investors to pursue directly from this firm.
However, the broker-dealers and their registered representatives that sold these products from this obscure entity in Bermuda, when there were safer US-based options they could have offered, can be held liable. Northstar (Bermuda) products have proved to be the opposite of secure even though financial advisors touted these fixed- and variable-rate annuity and investment products as CD-like and stable. Clearly, there were misrepresentations and omissions made.
Many of those who invested in Northstar Financial Services (Bermuda) are seniors and retirees that took six-figure sums out of their savings and retirement funds to participate. They are now grappling with significant financial losses.
Meanwhile, brokers and their firms earned high commissions and fees from marketing and selling these offshore investments. Not only that, but even after Lindberg was indicted in 2019, many financial advisors neglected to notify investors and continued to roll over their contracts for these investments.
SSEK Law Firm has found that there was a gross lack of supervision on the part of the brokerage firms whose registered representatives sold Northstar Financial Services (Bermuda) investments to customers. Had a supervisor been paying proper attention, surely, they would not have signed off on many of these trades.
