FINRA Allegations

FINRA alleged that it initiated an investigation into Raymond Brown after he was “permitted to resign” while under internal investigation from Northwestern Mutual.  According to BrokerCheck, Northwestern Mutual alleged that “The Representative was permitted to resign while under internal review for life insurance sales practices concerns that included, providing clients with incorrect or misleading information, unsuitable life insurance policy sales/overselling policies for the representative’s own benefit, and providing inaccurate income data for clients to ensure suitability.”

These allegations led to a FINRA investigation.  In response to the FINRA investigation, Brown refused to appear for an on-the-record interview, which led to him being barred from the securities industry.

Potential Responsibility of Northwestern Mutual
