Neemit M. Shah (Neemit Shah) – Financial Advisor/Broker Neemit Shah Suspended from Securities Industry | Goodman & Nekvasil, P.A. May Recover Investor Losses

Neemit M. Shah (Neemit Shah) CRD #4812480

Neemit Shah was a previously licensed financial advisor with Northwestern Mutual Investment Services, MML Investors Services, LLC and NYLife Securities LLC. According to Neemit Shah’s BrokerCheck report, Neemit Shah was suspended from the securities industry for six months and fined $5,000 in October 2020.

According to FINRA Allegations:

From March through April 2016, Shah engaged in two undisclosed and unapproved private securities transactions in the total amount of $408,000. Shah’s conduct violated FINRA Rules 3280 and 2010.

From March through April 2016, Shah solicited investors to purchase securities in Future Income Payments, LLC. FIP represented itself as a structured cash flow investment, claiming to purchase pensions at a discount from pensioners and then selling a portion of those pensions as a “pension stream” to investors. FIP generally promised investors a 7% to 8% rate of return on their investment. During the Relevant Period, Respondent sold $408,000 in FIP purchase agreements to two investors, both of whom were customers of his employer member firm. Respondent received a total of $8,160 in commissions in connection with these transactions.

At all times during the stated period, Respondent’s employer member firm prohibited its registered representatives from participating in private securities transactions without prior written approval from the firm. Respondent did not provide notice to his firm prior to participating in the transactions involving FIP, nor did he obtain approval from the firm. Respondent’s failure is aggravated by the fact that he made one false attestation to his firm that he did not participate in private securities transactions.

In April 2018, FIP ceased business, owing nearly $300 million in unpaid investor payments. In a March 12, 2019 indictment, the United States charged FIP and its owner, Scott A. Kohn, with conspiracy to engage in mail and wire fraud related to FIP’s operations.
