According to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), Broker Marc A. Reda is barred from working in the securities industry.
According to a FINRA complaint filed on June 15, 2021, Marc Reda allegedly recommended an unsuitable investment strategy. FINRA says that Reda purportedly failed to consider the substantial commissions and costs. Marc Reda’s alleged investment strategy and its high total costs reportedly harmed his customers.
The findings also stated that Marc Reda recommended securities transactions in his customers’ accounts that were excessive and quantitatively unsuitable for each of the customers. In excessively trading these customers’ accounts, Reda maximized his own financial benefit at the expense of his customers, generating costs of $264,734 and causing realized losses of $232,043 on accounts with an aggregate average monthly account value of $262,234.
Reda had no reasonable basis to believe that the investment strategy he recommended to his customers was suitable. FINRA found that the commissions Reda charged were excessive, unfair, and unreasonable.
