Charles Lewis Bloom (CRD#:4144108) is a previously registered investment broker. From 2016 to 2018, Mr. Bloom was employed at Chelsea Financial Services in Royal Palm Beach, Florida. Before that, this broker worked at International Assets Advisors (2015) and IAA Financial LLC (2014 to 2015).
On July 17th, 2018, Mr. Bloom was barred by FINRA from the securities industry. This enforcement action was taken due to this broker’s failure to cooperate with an investigation into allegations that he engaged in an unsuitable pattern of trading within at least three different customer brokerage accounts.
