James Walesa of Arkadios Capital Subect of Numerous Complaints
Customer Complaints and Investigation by FINRA
FINRA began investigating James Walesa of Arkadios Capital in Park Ridge, Illinois, after a customer complaint was made in 2023. The customer filed a FINRA arbitration complaint and alleged that Walesa recommended a speculative private investment called AIU Alternative Care, Inc., (now known as Clearday, Inc.). AIU Alternative/Clearday was purported to be an investment in senior care products and adult daily care services. The investments in AIU Alternative or Clearday are now worthless.
FINRA started looking into Walesa’s involvement in AIU Alternative and asked Walesa to cooperate in an investigation. FINRA alleges that Walesa has refused to adequately cooperate with its investigation, in violation of FINRA Rule 8210. The most common penalty for such a violation is expulsion from the securities industry.
