In a “Broker Comment” on the pending complaint’s disclosure, Mr. Peters denied any wrongdoing and asserted that the complaint is “completely” meritless. “The investments about which the customer complained were suitable and were recommended based on the customer’s objectives, goals and financial circumstances and were offered only after her review of all material documentation related to the investment,” he wrote, adding: “At all times, I put the customer’s interest first and I will vigorously defend this matter to the fullest extent of the law.”
