Ian James – Financial Advisor/Broker Suspended from Securities Industry | Goodman & Nekvasil P.A., May Recover Investor Losses

Ian James a/k/a Ian Eugene James CRD #2602300

Ian James a/k/a Ian Eugene James is a licensed financial advisor with International Assets Advisory. Ian James was previously licensed with Investacorp.

According to FINRA, Ian James was fined $10,000 and suspended from the securities industry for two months in December 2021.

According to FINRA Allegations:

James consented to the sanctions and to the entry of findings that he failed to timely amend his Uniform Application for Securities Industry Registration or Transfer (Form U4) to disclose a federal tax lien totaling $59,997.08. The finding stated that James became aware that the Internal Revenue Service had filed the tax lien against him, and subsequently inaccurately stated on his member firm’s annual compliance questionnaire that he had made all necessary amendments to his Form U4, even though he had not done so. James belatedly disclosed the lien on his Form U4 after FINRA inquired with the firm about the lien. The findings also stated that James engaged in an outside business activity without providing written notice to the firm. Through an entity James owned, he made a capital contribution to a medical marijuana company, in the form of a promissory note, in exchange for partial ownership interest in the company. James also formed and became the managing member of a new limited liability company to engage in operational activity for the medical marijuana company. James expected to serve as the medical marijuana company’s chief financial officer, and he expected to obtain compensation in that capacity and in connection with his ownership interest in the company. However, James, through the entity he owned, subsequently filed a lawsuit that alleged, among other things, that the medical marijuana company and its founder breached agreements that James had executed, such that he could not obtain future profits he had anticipated. James received a monetary settlement in connection with his lawsuit.
