FINRA BrokerCheck shows a final customer complaint on November 08, 2024.
Without admitting or denying the findings, Allen consented to the sanctions and to the entry of findings that he participated in private securities transactions by placing trades in a customer’s account held at another member firm, without providing notice to his member firm. The findings stated that Allen and the customer had a personal relationship, and the customer provided Allen with his log-in credentials to make transactions in the outside account. In total, Allen executed 1,507 trades in the account, including options transactions, totaling $726,585 in gross value. Allen did not receive compensation for the transactions. When the trading came to his firm’s attention, Allen initially misled the firm and stated that he had only been conducting paper trades in the account.
