Offer of 30% compensation

Two investors met me at Speaker's Corner yesterday. They received offer from their distributor (stockbroker) of 30% compensation and are given a deadline to accept it. They asked for my advice.

My view is that a fair compensation is 50%. If the distributor offers 50%, you should accept it.

For the 30% offer, I suggest that you let it lapse and wait for a better offer. If you wait until February, the prospect of the class action may be clearer. At that time, your option will be clearer.

However, if you are willing to take 30% and call it quits, you should decide on your own. It is better than nothing.
