Mark Alan Weber (CRD #2322177, Registered Representative, Palm City, Florida)
submitted a Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent in which he was fined $5,000 and suspended from association with any FINRA member in any capacity for 10 business days.
Without admitting or denying the findings, Weber consented to the described sanctions and to the entry of findings that he exercised discretion in customers’ accounts. The findings stated that although each of the customers had given Weber verbal authorization to use discretion in their accounts, Weber did not obtain the customers’ prior written authorization or his member firm’s written acceptance of the accounts as discretionary.
The findings also stated that the firm did not permit discretion to be utilized in retail
brokerage accounts. The suspension was in effect from September 6, 2011, through September 19, 2011. (FINRA Case #2008015184801)
