According to a recent FINRA announcement, Eric Evan Everson, formerly of Brokers International Financial Services, LLC in Gravois Mills, Missouri, has been fined $5,000 and suspended from associating with any FINRA member firm for 10 business days. The sanctions were based on findings that Everson recommended a variable annuity to a firm customer and recommended the customer put all of the funds into a growth portfolio. The findings further stated that Evenson’s recommendations were unsuitable in light of the customer’s age, investment experience, financial needs and that the client could not be exposed to market losses given her limited financial means.
Evenson was previously employed as a financial advisor by ING Financial Partners, Inc. (which is based in Des Moines, Iowa).
