As of June 6, 2020, FIMCO Securities Group’s FINRA BrokerCheck Report contains the following:
1 Regulatory Event Disclosures
UPDATE 6/18/2020: According to FINRA’s April 2020 Disciplinary Actions: FIMCO Securities Group, Inc. (CRD #30343, Mequon, Wisconsin) February 6, 2020 – An AWC was issued in which the firm was censured and fined $5,000. A lower fine was imposed after considering, among other things, the firm’s revenues, financial resources and ability to pay. Without admitting or denying the findings, the firm consented to the sanctions and to the entry of findings that it failed to conduct supervisory testing and verification or prepare an annual report documenting the results. The findings stated that the firm failed to prepare annual certifications attesting that it had processes in place to ensure that its supervisory systems and WSPs were reasonably designed to achieve compliance with the laws, rules and regulations governing its business and the activities of its registered representatives. In fact, the firm’s chief executive officer completed only one annual certification during a nine-year period; however, that certification was deficient because the firm did not prepare an annual supervisory report for review.

Due Diligence Requirement
FINRA requires broker-dealers to conduct due diligence on investments and to conduct a suitability analysis when recommending securities to a customer that takes into account the customer’s knowledge and experience. FINRA Rule 2111(a) states that “a member or an associated person must have a reasonable basis to believe that a recommended transaction or investment strategy involving a security or securities is suitable for the customer, based on the information obtained through the reasonable diligence of the member or associated person to ascertain the customer’s investment profile. A customer’s investment profile includes, but is not limited to, the customer’s age, other investments, financial situation and needs, tax status, investment objectives, investment experience, investment time horizon, liquidity needs, risk tolerance, and any other information the customer may disclose to the member or associated person in connection with such recommendation.”
Rule 2111 is composed of three main obligations: reasonable-basis suitability, customer-specific suitability, and quantitative suitability. Broker-Dealers that fail to conduct adequate due diligence on investments they recommend or that make unsuitable recommendations can be held responsible for the customer’s losses in a FINRA arbitration claim.
