According to FINRA, a registered representative for CSM recommended and executed 24 unsuitable purchases of customizable RCN’s totaling approximately $4 million. FINRA claimed that the eight clients affected were unsuitable candidates for these RCN purchases because of their risk tolerance, age, and financial experience.

FINRA also found red flags in seven of their clients’ accounts and that CSM did not verify the identification for seven accounts. In over 400 transactions, FINRA also found, that the CSM representative was collecting excessive commissions totaling approximately $32,784.13. CSM agreed to the FINRA sanctions, without admitting or denying the FINRA findings, and was ordered to pay a $470,000 fine.
