According to FINRA records, Stephen J. Sullivan, a stockbroker who currently works for Legend Securities, discloses a final customer dispute and a final regulatory event. In addition he discloses 3 currently pending judgment/liens.
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) is the agency that licenses and regulates stockbrokers and brokerage firms. FINRA requires brokers and brokerage firms to report customer complaints and disputes as well as regulatory sanctions. In addition brokers are required to disclose certain financial matters such as personal bankruptcies, judgments and liens.
In February 2016, without admitting or denying the findings, Sullivan consented to sanctions and entry of findings that while employed by First Midwest Securities, he exercised discretion in the accounts of two customers without obtaining their prior written approval. He was suspended for 10 business days and fined $5,000.
Sullivan’s prior employment includes Tryco Securities, Brookville Capital Partners (expelled by FINRA 6/2015), and Wilmington Capital Securities.
