FINRA Sanctions & Allegations of Misconduct
FINRA Sanctioned Suspension against Nicholas Alec Bougopoulos (CRD #6541069) and WELLS FARGO SECURITIES, LLC, San Francisco, California.
According to FINRA, pursuant to FINRA Rule 9552 and in accordance with FINRA’s Notice of Suspension letter dated January 9, 2019, Bougopolos was suspended in February 2019 from associating with any FINRA member firm in all capacities. The suspension was lifted on April 2, 2019.
Investors Have the Right to Recover Their Losses
When investments are sold by brokerage firms licensed by FINRA, they are subject to the laws that FINRA enforces. The brokerage firms are responsible for ensuring that their brokers are trading fairly, ethically and in the best interest of their clients. Ideally, they would accomplish this through careful supervision. Unfortunately, too often this supervision has been inadequate to fully protect investors. If you purchased any investments through a representative of a registered brokerage firm and suffered losses through negligence or fraud, it immediately puts the brokerage firm at fault for failing to supervise their broker. FINRA law then dictates that you can hold the firm legally liable to recover your damages.
