Securities Broker Jeff Salazar Sanctioned, Involved In American Portfolios Client Disputes

Investment loss recovery counsel at Soreide Law Group provide you with new information on securities broker Joffre Salazar “Jeff Salazar” (CRD#: 2185914, Staten Island, New York). The broker discloses information about a client dispute and regulatory enforcement action on BrokerCheck. Evidently, Salazar was a securities broker with IFMG Securities (2007 to 2008), LPL Financial LLC (2016 to 2019) and American Portfolios Financial Services (2019) during the time of the allegations against him. You’ll want to take a closer look at the following information as reported on BrokerCheck. But keep in mind that the broker denies committing unreasonable sales practices.

FINRA Issues 1-Year Suspension, $5,000 Fine To Jeff Salazar

Evidently, the regulator issued sanctions to Jeff Salazar in September 2021 to resolve allegations that he forged LPL Financial LLC clients’ signatures on documents to establish fixed annuities, violating FINRA Rule 2010. He served the suspension from September 2021 to September 2022 and paid the fine.

American Portfolios Financial Services Terminates Employment Of Salazar

Also, the securities broker received a “discharge” from American Portfolio Financial Services in September 2019. Namely, the firm alleges “inconsistencies in documents” relating to the submission of an insurance policy application.

American Portfolios Financial Services Inc. Client Alleges Accounts Opened Without Their Knowledge

Notably, in July 2019, a client of American Portfolios Financial Services Inc. complained about Jeff Salazar’s sales practices. Supposedly, Salazar or his employer caused damages through establishing accounts without the client’s knowledge. Because of this, the securities firm opted to settle this matter by virtue of payment to the client in October 2019.

Client Alleges Misrepresentation Relating To Variable Annuity Sold Through Jeff Salazar, IFMG
