Lewis Nelson Lester Sr. (Lewis Lester) CRD #1773617
Lewis Lester is a previously licensed financial advisor with Olden Lane Securities LLC. According to FINRA, Lewis Lester was suspended from the securities industry for one year in November 2020.
According to FINRA Allegations:
Lester consented to the sanctions and to the entry of findings that he participated in private securities transactions without providing prior written notice to his member firm. The findings stated that Lester participated in the private securities transactions by facilitating additional sales of ownership units in a limited liability company that provided consulting services to credit unions. Specifically, an existing investor in the company contacted Lester regarding a potential additional investment. Lester, in his role as chief executive officer of the company, signed an addendum to the investor’s original subscription agreement, pursuant to which the investor made an additional $500,000 investment and received additional ownership units in the company. The same investor again contacted Lester to discuss a further investment in the company. Lester, on behalf of the company, signed another addendum to the investor’s original subscription agreement, pursuant to which the investor made an additional $1,000,000 investment and received additional ownership units in the company. The additional ownership interests purchased by the investor were securities. Lester did not receive any commissions or other payments for his role in these transactions.
