FINRA Fined and Suspended Delray Beach Broker

Soreide Law Group, based in Pompano Beach, Florida (888) 760-6552, obtained the following summation of information from FINRA’s website, under “Disciplinary and Other FINRA Actions, April 2015.”

Wendy Ann Wurst (CRD #1902879, Atlantis, Florida) AKA/ WENDY ANN MINERD, WENDY A MINERO, WENDY ANN MINERO

was assessed a deferred fine of $50,000, suspended by FINRA for three months, and suspended in any principal capacity for six months for allegedly failing to reasonably supervise her firm’s registered representative’s involvement with three outside businesses that operated as unregistered broker-dealers. As the CCO and registered principal responsible for overseeing the registered representative’s activities, Wendy Wurst failed to reasonably supervise him by permitting him to effectuate securities transactions for compensation away from the firm through entities that were not registered as broker-dealers.

The findings stated that Wurst made misleading and inaccurate statements concerning the unregistered broker-dealers to corporate bond dealers in connection with the opening of certain delivery-versus-payment brokerage accounts for the unregistered broker-dealers.

The suspension in any capacity is in effect from March 2, 2015, through June 1, 2015. The suspension in any principal capacity is in effect from March 2, 2015, through September 1, 2015.
