ACCORDING TO FINRA: Dominic Tropiano consented to the sanction and to the entry of findings that he recommended transactions involving non-traditional exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to customers, without having a reasonable basis to believe those transactions were suitable for anyone, due to Dominic Tropiano’s lack of understanding of the unique risks, terms and features of the products.

The findings also stated that Dominic Tropiano caused non-traditional ETF transactions to be placed in customers’ securities accounts without the customers’ knowledge or consent, and in the absence of written or oral authorization for him to place such trades.
