Vida Longevity Fund Investigation | Vida Capital

Vida Longevity Fund is managed by Vida Capital, an Austin-based company that claims to emphasize “an opportunistic and risk-controlled approach to investment selection.” However, the Vida Longevity Fund is an alternative investment; therefore, it may be an unsuitable investment for conservative investors, i.e. retirees.

 

Financial advisors (brokers) have a legal obligation and regulatory obligation to recommend only suitable investments that are appropriate for their individual clients. Their broker-dealer (employing brokerage firm) has a legal obligation and regulatory obligation to supervise the financial advisor’s sales practices and dealings with clients. To the extent that any of these duties are breached, the customer may be entitled to a recovery of his or her investment losses.

 

If you believe you lost money because of unsuitable recommendations, including the addition of Vida Longevity Fund to your portfolio, it is important to take action. Contact Peiffer Wolf Carr Kane & Conway for a FREE Consultation by calling 585-310-5140 or by filling out an online Contact Form on this website.

Vida Capital was founded in 2009 and, according to its website, “has three primary business lines including life settlement funds, a life settlement provider, and insurance linked securities funds. Vida is the largest independent life settlements manager in the space and the third largest overall.”  Vida Capital is the manager of Vida Longevity Funds, an alternative investment whose value declined significantly and caused investors to lose money.

 

Alternative Investments are not regulated by the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission). According to Business Insider:

Whereas traditional investments are governed by strict disclosure regulations and protections against fraud, alternative investments put the onus on the investor.
(Business Insider)

Alternative investments are not liquid, suitable only for a small number of investors, and lack transparency as to their issuers’ relevant financial information.  Investment professionals sometimes recommend alternative investments to investors as a means to diversify and/or achieve higher returns.  However, they sometimes fail to disclose to their customers the risks associated with such products, or even to make sure the alternative investments they offer are legitimate. Moreover, alternative investments often provide brokers and advisors with a higher commission.
