Records filed with a US bankruptcy court show that at least four current or former customers of Independent Financial Partners advisor Aaron Klemm (CRD# 5621542) are listed as creditors for investments in GWG Holdings L bonds and/or preferred stock. The records describe investments totaling more than $400,000. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority records show that Mr. Klemm, a representative of Inflection Point Wealth Management, is based in Belmont, Michigan.
Dallas-based financial services firm GWG Holdings is known for a product known as “L bonds,” for which it raised investor funds to buy life insurance policies on the secondary market, allowing investors and GWG to profit when the policies pay out. The firm reportedly raised $1.6 billion from investors in L bonds, many of whom were retirees and other conservative investors. In 2020, GWG disclosed in a regulatory filing that it was undergoing financial difficulties, partly as a result of an SEC investigation into the company. In 2022, it filed for bankruptcy. If your financial advisor recommended GWG products that were unsuitable for your investment profile, you may be eligible to pursue a recovery. More information is available here.
