Gary Pevey, Terminated from Mutual Securities and Suspended One Year from Securities Industry

Have you lost money with financial advisor Gary Pevey from Sacramento, California?  We are looking into allegations made by FINRA (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) against Gary L. Pevey. FINRA suspended Pevey from the securities industry for one year, ordered him to pay a $10,000 fine, and ordered him to disgorge over $40,000 in commissions.  Pevey was being investigated regarding allegations that he sold $1.1 million in investments in the Woodbridge Group of Companies.  Last year, Woodbridge filed for bankruptcy, and investors will likely suffer substantial losses.

Gary Pevey was a registered representative and financial advisor with Mutual Securities from March 2011 to February 2018.  He worked out of a branch office in Sacramento, California.  He was also terminated by Mutual Securities for his sales of Woodbridge.

Broker-dealers like Mutual Securities have a responsibility to adequately supervise all representatives who are registered through their firm, including investments sold by their registered representatives.  Broker-dealers also must take steps to ensure that their financial advisors follow all securities rules and regulations.  When broker-dealers fail to adequately supervise their registered representatives, they may be liable for investment losses sustained by customers.
