Allegations Against Michael Schoolcraft

In June 2026 FINRA requested documents and information from Schoolcraft during its investigation. The investigation started after Schoolcraft was terminated by MML Investors Services regarding “personal loan transactions” with customers. Generally, financial advisors cannot borrow money from customers, with limited exceptions. After Schoolcraft refused to cooperate with FINRA’s investigation, he was barred from the securities industry.
