The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) reports new information in regard to securities broker Gary Begnaud (CRD#: 865927, Mount Laurel, New Jersey). Evidently, Begnaud worked for Merrill Lynch (1982 to 2020) as a securities broker and financial advisor. He joined Janney Montgomery Scott in 2020. FINRA shows that two investors filed disputes about Begnaud’s actions at Merrill Lynch.
Evidently, a client of Merrill Lynch came forward with a dispute about Gary Begnaud in September 2020. Namely, the client alleged that in March 2020, Begnaud engaged in unauthorized trading. It seems that the client sustained damages on mutual funds. However, Merrill Lynch denied the client’s dispute and request for compensation.
BrokerCheck also shows that investors disputed Gary Begnaud’s sales practices concerning limited partnership units. Supposedly, the securities firm engaged in misrepresentations and violation of Pennsylvania securities laws, causing damages to the client. It appears that the firm agreed to settle this matter with the client by making a $25,000 payment. Evidently, Begnaud was not involved in the settlement of the dispute. It is unclear which firm settled this matter.
