Gottschall v Tolmacs, et al FINRA Case 16-2899

ORIGINAL POST AUGUST 2016

The FINRA records of  Christopher T. Tolmacs,  a  stock broker who was permanently barred from the industry by FINRA and who was last employed by Triad Advisors  disclose  2 prior  regulatory event, a currently pending customer dispute, 2 prior customer disputes and 2 currently outstanding judgement/liens.

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) is the agency that licenses and regulates stockbrokers and brokerage firms.

In addition brokers are required to disclose certain financial matters such as personal bankruptcies, judgments and liens.

In March 2016, Tolmacs consented to FINRA sanctions, including a permanent bar from the industry, to resolve allegations that he failed to fully respond to requests from FINRA in connection with an investigation into whether Tolmacs had entered into lending arrangements with several of his customers through the issuance of promissory notes and whether Tolmacs made materially misleading statements and omissions in connection with those arrangements and whether Tolmacs converted customer funds. FINRA Case 2016048966301.

In a currently pending customer dispute, a customer of Triad Advisors alleges damages of $385,000 in connection with a loan solicited by Tolmacs.
