The following summation of information is from FINRA's website under, "Disciplinary and Other Actions, March, 2014."

Ariel Luis Hernandez (CRD #2684424, Registered Principal, Pembroke Pines, Florida)

was barred by FINRA. Hernandez, according to FINRA's report, allegedly did not comply with requests for documents, information and testimony.

FINRA began an investigation because of a Uniform Termination Notice for Securities Industry Registration (Form U5) filed by Hernandez’s firm alleging that Ariel Hernandez had wired money from a client’s brokerage account to a bank without the client’s knowledge or permission. This also disclosed an alleged pending customer dispute concerning the same allegations. The alleged compensatory damages total amount was $158,000.
