The findings also stated that Williams sent an email related to a customer’s investment from an outside email address to his firm’s supervisor and wrote, ‘I am writing on this email so as not to be FINRA reviewed.’ Thereby, Williams sent this email with the stated intention of avoiding FINRA oversight.
