On May 31, 2024, FINRA took regulatory action against Berg, permanently barring him from working in the securities industry. This action stemmed from Berg’s refusal to provide information and documents that FINRA requested during an investigation. The investigation was focused on his recommendations to senior clients to invest in private offerings, as well as his involvement with client trusts. Although Berg initially provided some information, it was incomplete, and he refused to cooperate further. Without admitting or denying the allegations, Berg agreed to the sanction. The bar is permanent and applies to all roles in the securities industry.
