On May 28, 2019, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Case No. 3-19183, sanctioning Stephen Anderson.
Stephen Anderson, while at River Source Wealth Management LLC, reportedly overcharged clients by at least $367,000 in advisory fees. Supposedly, he also misrepresented crucial information in mandatory reports to the SEC and to clients. Among these were false declarations of River Source's assets under management.
Furthermore, Anderson allegedly neglected to maintain necessary financial records and did not establish and enforce reasonable compliance procedures and policies. His failure to conduct annual reviews of these policies or evaluate their effectiveness made the situation worse, according to the regulator. SEC's findings concluded that Anderson violated Investment Advisers Act Sections 206(2) and 207, and also abetted violations concerning the maintenance of proper books and records.
SEC’s sanctions included cease and desist from future violations; disgorgement of ill-gotten gains totaling $367,176; a fine of $100,000; and restrictions on Anderson's future activities in the financial services industry. Notably, Anderson cannot act in any supervisory or compliance capacity with any financial institutions or charge client advisory fees without supervision for three years.
