On July 2, 2021, Charles Schwab disclosed an investigation by the SEC focused on the Schwab Intelligent Portfolios digital advisory solution. The company warned that its second quarter 2021 financial results would include a liability and related non-deductible charge of $200 million. Then, on June 13, 2022, the SEC announced that it had charged Charles Schwab with misleading investors that used its robo-advisor product, Schwab Intelligent Portfolios.
