Sequoia Financial Group Ltd. ( (AU:SEQ) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Sequoia Financial Group has disclosed that its subsidiary InterPrac Financial Planning has launched Federal Court proceedings against the Australian Financial Complaints Authority. The case challenges AFCA’s December 2025 determination on client complaints tied to advice about the collapsed Shield Master Fund.

InterPrac argues AFCA failed to properly account for the role of other parties involved with the Shield Master Fund when apportioning responsibility for investor losses. The firm also contends the ruling exposes structural limitations in AFCA’s rules and processes for handling complex disputes that involve multiple entities, including matters connected to the First Guardian Master Fund collapse.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:SEQ) stock is a Hold with a A$0.24 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Sequoia Financial Group Ltd. stock, see the AU:SEQ Stock Forecast page.
