The Allegations
In February 2020, Peter Monson was officially sanctioned by FINRA. The findings state that he excessively and unsuitably traded a customer’s IRA account. He allegedly continued actively trading incredibly risky microcap stocks even though the account had fallen over 60 percent and the customer was facing a serious illness. Due to this alleged unsuitable trading, Peter Monson was fined $7,500 and was suspended from acting as a securities broker in any fashion for a period of six months.
