SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico, Oct. 8, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Puerto Rican bond funds offered by UBS Puerto Rico, Popular Securities, Inc., and Santander Securities, Corp have suffered steep declines in recent months. Investor losses on the $70 billion of outstanding bonds continue to mount as Puerto Rico's economy continues to shrink, suffers from high unemployment, and the Puerto Rican government has accumulated large debts.

Gana LLP announces its investigation into UBS Puerto Rico, Popular Securities, and Santander Securities' sales practices to customers concerning their fixed income bond funds. Customers have come forward alleging that their advisors falsely promoted the Puerto Rico bond funds as investments designed for capital preservation, stability, and providing current income. Investors have also claimed that their advisors recommended placing the majority of their assets, sometimes on margin or credit, into the Puerto Rico bond funds placing their entire retirement savings at risk.
