Is MLM a profitable business These conclusions were confirmed in the opportunity? And if so, for whom? Just do the average earnings reports of all 30 MLMs for math – the numbers don't lie. In this and which we were able to obtain data published preceding chapters, you will find the most by the companies themselves. Such statistics rigorous and thorough analysis of MLM are invaluable for analysts to debunk the profitability ever done by an independent many misrepresentations that are told to research firm. Questions about the viability thousands of prospects every day. and profitability of MLM as a business model Failure and loss rates for MLMs are not and its many company manifestations are comparable with legitimate small answered in this and prior chapters – based businesses, which have been found to be on 15 years’ research, worldwide feedback, profitable for 39% over the lifetime of the and analysis of the compensation plans of business; whereas less than 1% of MLM over 350 of the leading MLMs, as well as participants profit.

  • Study on Investment Advisers and Broker-Dealers
    Study on Investment Advisers and Broker-Dealers As Required by Section 913 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act This is a Study of the Staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission _________________________________ January 2011 This is a study by the Staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Commission has expressed no view regarding the analysis, findings, or conclusions contained herein. Executive Summary Background Retail investors seek guidance from broker-dealers and investment advisers to manage their investments and to meet their own and their families’ financial goals. These investors rely on broker-dealers and investment advisers for investment advice and expect that advice to be given in the investors’ best interest. The regulatory regime that governs the provision of investment advice to retail investors is essential to assuring the integrity of that advice and to matching legal obligations with the expectations and needs of investors. Broker-dealers and investment advisers are regulated extensively, but the regulatory regimes differ, and broker-dealers and investment advisers are subject to different standards under federal law when providing investment advice about securities. Retail investors generally are not aware of these differences or their legal implications. Many investors are also confused by the different standards of care that apply to investment advisers and broker-dealers. That investor confusion has been a source of concern for regulators and Congress. Section

  • The Pyramid Scheme Industry
    THE PYRAMID SCHEME INDUSTRY: Examining Some Legal and Economic Aspects of Multi-Level Marketing Douglas M. Brooks Robert L. Fitzpatrick Bruce Craig The announcement on March 12, 2014, that Herbalife Ltd. (NYSE: HLF) had received a Civil Investigative Demand from the Federal Trade Commission caps a twenty-two month period during which persistent questions have been raised concerning the purported business opportunity known as multi-level marketing (MLM). While much of the financial media has recently been focused on the Herbalife story, the problems with MLM are not new, and they are not limited to Herbalife. As we explain in this paper, there are fundamental problems at the core of the MLM business model, and with the efforts of the FTC to regulate the MLM “industry.” The authors of this paper are all members of an international coalition of consumer advocates which, on October 24, 2013, filed a formal petition with the FTC requesting that it investigate the MLM industry and promulgate regulations to protect consumers from unfair and deceptive MLM business opportunities.1 This paper is intended to build on the Petition and to assist legislators, regulators and interested persons to understand the MLM industry and the need for further action. Why all the fuss over MLM? Why are Wall Street billionaires fighting very public battles over MLM? Is MLM merely a form of direct, person-to-person selling in which independent distributors can earn money both by selling products directly to consumers or by 1 See http://pyramidschemealert.org/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Petition-of-Ad-Hoc-
