Did Timothy Robert Millis Cause You Investment Losses?
Michigan has thousands of stock brokerage firms and investment advisory offices. With so many stock brokerage firms and investment advisory offices, comes the potential for their stockbrokers, financial advisors, and other representatives to misrepresent and mislead investors about investing in Mutual Funds and engage in all kinds of stockbroker misconduct which violates Federal and Michigan securities laws and Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) rules as well as the stock brokerage firms policies and procedures.
Timothy Robert Millis of Lake Orion, Michigan submitted a Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent (AWC) to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) in which he received a suspension for allegedly making unsuitable recommendations in violation of FINRA Rules 2111 and 2010. Mr. Millis joined NYLIFE Securities as General Securities Representative and Insurance Agent in 2002. FINRA’s findings stated that Mr. Millis recommended 66 unsuitable short-term Class A mutual fund share transactions in ten customers’ accounts. According to FINRA, the ten customers were charged approximately $174,725 in upfront sales charges and five customers incurred losses totaling approximately $33,391. In addition, FINRA found that Mr. Millis made a recommendation to another customer for an unsuitable switch from a variable annuity to Class A mutual fund shares resulting in a surrender charge of $14,866 and upfront sales charges of $15,340. FINRA further found that Mr. Millis did not have a reasonable basis to believe these recommendations were suitable and therefore violated the customer-specific suitability obligation. Without admitting or denying FINRA’s findings, Timothy Robert Millis was suspended from associating with any FINRA member in all capacities for three months and ordered to pay to FINRA a deferred disgorgement of a portion of the commissions received in the amount of $7,500.
