DAVID JOHN VOLPE (CRD#: 2543478), a former registered representative for FIRST FINANCIAL EQUITY CORPORATION, has been ordered to pay restitution to a client with a “cognitive impairment”. According to Arizona Corporation Commission, the Commission found Mr. Volpe sold to his long-term client with cognitive impairment unregistered investment contracts in a defunct company, issuing false invoices to reflect the client’s investment. Mr. Volpe also sold this client an unregistered note in a dotcom company. Both investment offerings were not on record at Mr. Volpe’s employer, a securities dealer.
Additionally, the Commission found that, while registered as a securities salesman, Mr. Volpe engaged in dishonest and unethical conduct by borrowing money from the same client. In 2021, the Maricopa County Superior Court appointed a permanent guardian and permanent conservator to Mr. Volpe’s client.
