Joe Allbright Suspended Over AllegationsOn June 8, 2020, Joe Allbright (CRD#:3001630) consented to being suspended for nine months and fined $10,000 by FINRA. He also consented to the findings that he engaged in undisclosed and unapproved private securities transactions. The findings stated that Allbright solicited investors to purchase securities in a company.

The company 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. The company generally promised investors a 7% to 8% rate of return on their investment. 

Allbright allegedly sold $502,000 in company purchase agreements to investors, including one customer of his member firm and received a total of $11,200 in commissions in connection with these transactions. Additionally, the findings stated that Allbright did not provide notice to his firm prior to participating in the transactions involving the company, nor did he obtain approval from the firm. The findings also stated that Allbright engaged in outside business activities for compensation without providing prior written notice to his firm.

Allbright conducted an insurance business, selling insurance products from both firm-affiliated and non-affiliated companies. Allbright also conducted financial planning services business, offering fixed products and other financial planning services. Each of those activities were outside the scope of Allbright’s relationship with the firm. Further, Allbright completed at least three compliance questionnaires incorrectly attesting that he had disclosed all outside activities to the firm.

Allbright has one other disclosure on his BrokerCheck report.
