Particularly, on February 13, 2025, an Edward Jones client filed a complaint about Kevin Barth. The client alleged that Barth engaged in unauthorized trading, which allegedly resulted in unexpected tax consequences. Because of this, the client allegedly sustained damages on stocks. Therefore, the client requested compensation from Edward Jones or Barth. While the client did not specify a dollar amount, the firm reported that the damage from the alleged conduct exceeds $5,000, triggering disclosure requirements.

Unauthorized trading refers to the act of a broker making trades in a client’s account without obtaining prior approval. Brokers are generally required to have either discretionary authority or explicit client consent for each transaction. When a broker executes trades without the necessary permission, they can expose the investor to unwanted financial risks, including tax liabilities or market losses. Such actions can be seen as a breach of trust and may violate both firm policies and industry regulations.
