BrokerCheck
For investors spooked by recent financial scams and scandals, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority offers tools to monitor stockbrokers and avoid fraud. At Finra.org/BrokerCheck, you can check the professional background of current and former Finra-registered securities firms and brokers, as well as find any regulatory complaints or customer disputes. You can also see a listing of the broker’s current registrations, licenses or exams passed. The site's Risk Meter and Scam Meter tools can help you check if an investment seems too good to be true.
