Investors who've lost more than $75,000 should consider all options

The collapse of Morgan Keegan bond mutual funds has led to investor claims and a continuing investigation of Regions Financial Corp. (NYSE: RF), according to a four-law firm legal team with nationally recognized securities law experience.

But the brokers who sold the bond funds are not targets of investor claims, according to the investors’ legal team.
