Bob Reese: $500K Complaint Against Ex-Secure Capital Advisor

Charlotte, North Carolina financial advisor Bob Reese (CRD# 5880465) allegedly misrepresented investments, according to a recent investor complaint. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority records show that he is registered as a broker with Innovation Partners and the founder of Aditum Group.

Mr. Reese’s BrokerCheck report discloses one investor complaint. Filed in March 2026, it alleges that as a representative of Secure Capital Research, he invested the customer’s funds in illiquid private placements, misrepresented alternative investments, and concentrated investments in life insurance and real estate, including CA Ventures GPFund II, CA Ventures GP Fund III, and HA Select-Waterford LLC. The pending complaint alleges damages of $500,000.

In a statement included with the complaint’s disclosure, Mr. Reese denied the allegations. “The attorney that filed the claim on behalf of the investor is completely misguided as the investor was not a client of Mr. Reese pursuant to FINRA definitions,” he wrote. “Notwithstanding, the individual was an experienced individual who raised money for his own entity and having sought out alternative investments on his own initiative. Mr. Reese will seek dismissal of the action and expungement of the fraudulent claim.”
