Suspended or Barred for Form U4 Violations

August 31, 2010

This past month, 6 individuals were disciplined, principally for willfully failing to disclose material information on his or her Form U4.  Their stories... 

  1. Principal (WI) fined $10K, suspended 6 months.
  2. RR (CA) barred.
  3. RR (NJ) fined $12.5K, suspended 7 months.  [Engaged in O/S business without prompt notice to firm.]
  4. RR (NJ) fined $15K, suspended 4 months. [Engaged in O/S business without prompt notice to firm.]
  5. Principal (MO) fined $5K, suspended 9 months.
  6. RR (NY) barred.  [Hearing Offiers reaffirmed prior discipline.]
In some instances, the individual is noted to have lied on his or her employer's annual compliance questionnaire, where one of the questions asked if the associated person had complied with particular firm policies - e.g., did not engage in any unreported or unauthorized outside business activities.   [FINRA Disciplinary Action for August]
