I have never heard of Monaco Capital Management. How do I know my money is safe from fraud?

Great question! First, when investing your personal assets, you will never be asked to make a check payable directly to Monaco Capital Management. Your investable funds will always be payable to either Raymond James Financial Services or to the mutual fund or insurance company with whom you are investing. Second, as a member of the FINRA and SIPC (Securities Investors Protection Corporation), Raymond James Financial Services provides our clients with the protection and oversight to which investors have become accustomed. Additionally, Raymond James is subject to NYSE oversight and unannounced SEC audits. The only checks you will ever be asked to make payable to Monaco Capital Management will be for our compensation (fees or hourly services).
