New Jersey Broker Suspended by FINRA for EXCESSIVE Trading

Soreide Law Group, a Securities Arbitration Law Firm, (888) 760-6552, obtained the following information on FINRA’s website under “Disciplinary and Other FINRA Actions, August, 2013.”

Anthony Mediate III (CRD #2449614, Registered Representative, Red Bank, New Jersey)

was suspended from association with any FINRA member in any capacity for 60 days. Because of Anthony Mediate’s financial status, no monetary sanctions have been imposed. Without admitting or denying the findings, Mediate consented to the described sanction and to the entry of findings that he engaged in excessive trading and exercised discretion without written authorization in his client's account.

The FINRA findings stated that during 15 months that the customer maintained the IRA account with Anthony Mediate at his firms, the client incurred a net loss of approximately $55,000. The customer paid $37,464.45 in commissions.
The turnover ratio for the account was calculated at 5.35 and the commission-to-equity ratio was calculated 30 percent. This was inconsistent with the customer’s stated objectives and financial situation.

FINRA found that Anthony Mediate failed to disclose an unsatisfied judgment on his Form U4 until two days after he was confronted with the judgment at a FINRA on-the-record interview.
This suspension is in effect from July 15, 2013, through September 12, 2013. (FINRA Case #2009018517201)
