Columbus Advisory Group Client Suggests Timothy Wright Churned Client’s Account
Notably, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) shows on Timothy Wright’s BrokerCheck Report that a client brought FINRA Arbitration #18-03337 on October 2, 2018. First of all, the client claimed Wright made excessive trades of speculative investments, including OTC equities and stocks, in the client’s account. Secondly, Wright allegedly churned the client’s account. In other words, the client suggested that Wright traded mainly to generate commissions and without regard to the client’s investment performance.
Thirdly, Timothy Wright allegedly made unreasonable trades when considering the client’s investment profile. Supposedly, those trades caused the client to take on an unreasonable amount of risk. Finally, the client claimed that Columbus Advisor Group did not supervise Wright’s trading practices. Because of this, the client alleged $43,851.36 in damages in this ongoing matter.
What’s more, FINRA suspended Wright in November 2016. Evidently, he “willfully” failed to disclose to FINRA that he had 6 total tax liens against him.
