The FINRA records of  Scott P. Kozak ,  a  unregistered broker who was last employed by  Cetera Advisors disclose  a recent regulatory event, 4 prior customer disputes  and a termination of employment.

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.

Kozak was notified that FINRA has made a preliminary determination to recommend that disciplinary action be brought against Kozak for engaging in private securities transactions in violation of NASD and FINRA rules.

In 2009 a customer of Kozak’s prior employer, Multi-Financial Securities Corp. was awarded $51,750 to resolve allegations of securities fraud, breach of fiduciary duty and other claims.

In 2008, another customer of Multi-Financial Securities was paid $27,500 to resolve allegations that Kozak did not follow instructions resulting in substantial tax losses.

Kozak was employed by Cetera Advisors from 7/2001 until 7/2018 when he was discharged for violating firm policy related to private securities transactions. Kozak discloses business affiliations with Ridit Consulting and IGC LLC, both of which are located in Highland Ranch, CO.
