When a broker is “selling away” it is when the broker solicits a client to purchase securities not held or offered by the executing brokerage firm. Brokerage firms generally have lists of approved products that can be offered by their brokers to their clients. These approved products have usually undergone due diligence and have been identified by the firm's screening personnel as solid products. Selling away is a violation of securities regulations.
