Philip Pursino (CRD #3212554, Registered Representative, West Hempstead, New York)
was fined $5,000 and suspended from association with any FINRA member in any capacity for two months. Without admitting or denying the findings, Pursino consented to the described sanctions and to the entry of findings that he borrowed a total of $750,000 from customers, through his company, to provide funding for business capital contrary to his member firm’s WSPs, which permitted registered persons to borrow from customers only under limited circumstances and only after obtaining the firm’s written pre-approval. In connection with the loans, Pursino drafted and signed promissory notes on his company’s behalf. In each instance, he failed to notify or obtain his member firm’s advance written approval of the loans. Pursino’s company has repaid a portion of each loan.
The suspension was in effect from April 15, 2013, through June 14, 2013.
