Ejiro Okuma Permitted to Resign by Equitable Advisors: Misappropriation Allegations

Israels & Neuman, PLC

Allegations

According to allegations disclosed on FINRA’s BrokerCheck, Ejiro Okuma of Atlanta, Georgia, was permitted to resign by Equitable Advisors in June 2025.  Equitable Advisors disclosed that Okuma “resigned after the Firm suspended him due to allegations of misappropriation by a non-Equitable Advisors’ client”.

The resignation occurred just about two weeks after a customer complaint was filed.   In early June 2025, a customer filed a complaint in FINRA arbitration.  The complaint alleged that Okuma “misappropriated funds from him”.   No dollar amount of losses was listed, but the claim was alleged to be over $5,000.  If You lost money with this advisor, you may be eligible to file a claim for losses.

Who is Ejiro Okuma?

Ejiro Okuma worked in an Atlanta, Georgia office while registered with Equitable Advisors from May 2023 to June 2025.  He was also previously affiliated with Edward Jones from 2010 to May 2023.  Mr. Okuma also owned and operated Okuma Capital Management in Georgia.

Can I Recover My Investment Losses?

Yes—investors have the right to pursue claims through FINRA arbitration, a legal forum designed to help recover funds lost due to broker misconduct or unsuitable investment recommendations.

Ejiro Okuma may be individually liable for misrepresentation, unsuitable advice, or breach of fiduciary duty. However, Equitable Advisors may also bear responsibility if they failed to properly supervise Okuma or ignored warning signs.
