The FINRA records of  Lyle J. Boudreaux,  a  stockbroker who is not currently registered with any FINRA broker dealer and who was last employed in the securities industry by  TCFG Wealth Management, disclose a prior regulatory event related to the sale of exchange traded funds (ETFs), 5  prior final customer disputes  and a termination from 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.

In 12/2020, Texas securities regulators denied Boudreaux’s application for registration to resolve allegations that from 2/2016-4/2017 Boudreaux traded leveraged exchange traded funds (ETFs) in client accounts and cons concentrated the holdings causing significant losses to the clients. As a part of the agreement, Boudreaux has agreed not to reapply with the Securities Commissioner for at least a year from the date of the order.

In 4/2020 a customer of Independent Financial Group was paid $235,000 to settle their FINRA claim which alleged that Boudreaux caused damages as a result of unsuitable investments in ETFs.

In May 2017 a customer of Independent Financial Group filed a complaint alleging that losses were suffered as a result of an ETF position in an advisory account. That matter was settled for $80,000.

In 6/2018 a customer of Independent Financial Group was paid $90,000 to settle a FINRA arbitration alleging that Boudreaux had recommended leveraged ETFs that resulted in financial losses to the account.

In 2/1019 a customer of Independent Financial Group was paid $120,000 to resolve allegations that Boudreaux failed to disclose material information with regard to the sale of an exchange traded fund (ETF) and an alternative investment.

In 11/2018 a customer of Independent Financial Group was paid $155,000 to resolve claims that exchange traded fund investments (ETFs) were inappropriate. FINRA Case 18-378.

Boudreaux worked for TCFG Wealth Management from 2/2020-7/2020. He was with Independent Financial Group from 8/2012-1/2020. Prior to that he worked for Merrill Lynch until he was discharged by Merrill Lynch for failing to update a family member/client’s account record to indicate that the client was deceased and continuing to execute transactions in the account on behalf of the estate prior to obtaining the proper paperwork.
