Jason Young of Creative Planning Review

DID JASON ERIC YOUNG CAUSE YOU INVESTMENT LOSSES? Jason Young of Creative Planning Of  Has A Customer Complaint For Alleged Investment Advisor Misconduct   Jason Young Customer Complaints and Reviews Jason Young has 1 negative disclosure event: Allegations Against Jason Young This comprehensive overview allows potential clients to weigh the advisor’s professional background alongside disclosed incidents for an informed decision. Jason Young Employment History Young holds registrations in two states: North Carolina and Texas. Notably, he passed the Uniform Combined State Law Examination (Series 66) in February 2003 and holds the Certified Financial Planner (CFP) designation. His prior employment includes positions at Mercer Global Advisors, Windhaven Investment Management, Charles Schwab & Co., Wachovia Securities, and Citigroup Global Markets. Mr. Young’s career includes both investment advisory and management roles, and his employment spans several locations including Charlotte, North Carolina, and Alpharetta, Georgia. Investment Advisors Owe Clients The Highest Level Of Care Investment advisors have a fiduciary duty to act in the best interest of their clients, placing the client’s interests above their own. This includes providing full disclosure about nature, mechanics, and risks of any recommended investment strategies or activities. Advisors must ensure that clients understand the potential outcomes, costs, and risks associated with investments, enabling them to make informed decisions. The duty of care requires advisors to exercise skill, diligence, and prudence in managing client portfolios, ensuring that recommendations are suitable for each client’s specific financial goals, risk tolerance, and circumstances. This fiduciary responsibility is essential in maintaining trust and ensuring the advisor’s decisions prioritize the client’s needs. Option Trading Can Be Extremely Risky Option trading can be highly risky, particularly when it involves complex strategies or high leverage. Options give investors the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an underlying asset at a predetermined price within a set period. While options can be used to hedge risks, they can also amplify losses, especially for inexperienced investors. Investment advisors who engage in options trading on behalf of clients must carefully consider the client’s risk tolerance and ensure they fully understand the potential outcomes. More risky options strategies, such as naked calls or puts, involve selling options without holding the underlying asset. This exposes the investor to unlimited losses if the market moves unfavorably. For example, in a naked call strategy, an advisor sells a call option without owning the underlying stock. If the stock price rises significantly, the client could face substantial losses, as they would be obligated to buy the stock at a much higher price. Due to these risks, it’s crucial for advisors to fully explain the strategy and its potential consequences before engaging in such transactions. Jason Young Red Flags & Your Rights As An Investor Of course, Jason Young did not admit to any of the allegations. But regardless of whether an arbitration award was entered, a settlement occurred, or the customer complaint is still pending, the allegations made by customers are red flags which should put all current and former customers of Jason Young at Creative Planning on alert to review carefully the activity and performance of their accounts and question whether Jason Young has engaged in any stockbroker misconduct that may have caused them investment losses.
