Randall McGill: $75K GWG L Bond Complaint Against Ausdal Advisor

A recent investor complaint against Homer Glen, Illinois financial advisor Randall McGill (CRD# 1309727) alleges misconduct relating to an investment in GWG L bonds. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority records show that he is a broker and former investment advisor with Ausdal Financial Partners.

Mr. McGill’s BrokerCheck report discloses one investor complaint. Filed in September 2023, it alleges that as a representative of Ausdal Financial Partners, he failed to conduct due diligence, recommended an unsuitable investment, and breached his fiduciary duty in connection with an investment in GWG L bonds. The pending complaint alleges damages of $75,000.

Investments in GWG Holdings, which reportedly raised more than $1 billion in its life settlement-backed “L bond” products before later filing for bankruptcy while being probed by the SEC, were risky investments were likely unsuitable for conservative investors. FINRA rules require broker-firms and their representatives to recommend only investments that are considered suitable for their customers, based on the customer’s experience, goals, income, liquidity needs, and other factors. Brokers who recommend unsuitable products may be liable in the event of damages.
