Allegations Regarding David Cohen

In December 2025, David Cohen was fired by Cetera Investment Services in Yonkers, New York. Cohen allegedly was “transacting business while under suspension by the Firm and for failing to cooperate with the Firm’s internal review of allegations that client funds were paid directly to the representative, and the representative used the funds to support his business.” 

FINRA then opened its own investigation into Cohen.  He failed to cooperate with FINRA’s investigation, and as such, he was barred under FINRA Rule 8210.  Cohen has now faced two customer complaints alleging misappropriation of funds or fraud.

Background on David Cohen

David Cohen was licensed with Cetera Investment Services from June 2019 to December 2025.   He worked in a Yonkers, New York office. He also had several tax liens filed against him, including a $232,000 tax lien made in 2023.

Could Cetera Investment Services be Liable for Customer Losses?

FINRA standards provide that brokerage firms like Cetera Investment Services must reasonably supervise the activities of their financial advisors.   Firms that fail to do so could be responsible for investor losses.
