The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) is the agency that licenses and regulates stockbrokers and brokerage firms. FINRA requires brokers and brokerage firms to report customer complaints and disputes as well as regulatory sanctions. In addition brokers are required to disclose certain financial matters such as personal bankruptcies, judgments and liens.
FINRA records are public and can be accessed on the BrokerCheck website.
The FINRA records of Enver R. Alijaj , report that he is currently named in 9 pending customer disputes, 2 pending criminal matters and has an outstanding lien in the amount of $37,438 in favor of American Express Centurian Bank.
In 2014, one of Alijaj’s former customers at JHS Capital Securities, won a $1 million award against Alijaj. JHS Capital Securities had made a confidential settlement prior to the arbitration hearing.
In the currently pending cases the customers make allegations that Alijaj made unsuitable investments, churned and made excessive trades in the accounts, over concentrated the accounts and was grossly negligent. Total alleged damages in the pending cases exceed $3 million. See FINRA record for details.
FINRA records report Alijaj was employed in the securities most recently as follows:
- 4/2013-8/2013 Avenir Financial Group
- 12/2010-4/2013 Legend Securities Inc.
- 4/2010-12/2010 First Midwest Securities
- 6/2009-4/2010 JHS Capital Securities
Alijaj was “permitted to resign” from Legend Securities in March 2013 with the following allegation from his former employer:
“During FINRA mandated suspension from 1/22/2013-3/21/2013, Mr. Alijaj was prohibited from entering Legend’s offices. However, the firm has learned that Mr. Alijaj violated this prohibition by coming into Legend’s office after hours. In addition Mr. Alijaj failed to respond to compliance inquiries in response to firm oversight.”
