Regulators suspended securities broker Kyle Joon Kim (also known as Kyo Kim) [CRD: 2446395, Summit, New Jersey], based on disclosures on Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) BrokerCheck. Evidently, Kyle Kim worked for The Leaders Group Inc. from May 28, 2024 to May 16, 2025, and for LPL Financial LLC from February 14, 2018 to June 4, 2024. Read the following sections to know more about the regulatory disclosures involving this individual.

Maryland Fined Kyo Kim For Unreported Business Dealings

Particularly, on April 22, 2025, Maryland issued Case: 2025-0249 sanctioning Kyle Kim. Specifically, Kim was suspended for three months and fined $5,000. Notably, Maryland alleged that Kim engaged in unapproved outside business activities according to FINRA findings.

FINRA Found That Kim Engaged In Real Estate Activities

Also, Kim entered into an Acceptance, Waiver and Consent (“AWC”) with FINRA in which he agreed to a suspension from May 19, 2025, through August 18, 2025, and a $5,000 fine.

FINRA found that from June 2019 to June 2024, while registered with LPL Financial LLC, Kim participated in a real estate development partnership involving six properties. He created a limited liability company to manage the venture and helped with logistics and planning. In 2023, Kim arranged $90,000 in funding from his clients to support the project.

Kim failed to notify LPL of his involvement, violating FINRA Rules 3270 and 2010. These rules require prior written notice for any business activity outside the brokerage relationship. LPL cited this issue in Kim’s termination filing.
