FINRA recently announced that James Cordell Wisdom III, formerly a financial advisor with Natcity Investments, Inc. in Norwood, Ohio, has been barred association with any FINRA member in any capacity. Without admitting or denying the findings, Wisdom consented to the described sanction and to the entry of findings that he executed an unauthorized sale of shares of a mutual fund in a customer’s account without the customer’s knowledge or authorization. The findings also stated that Wisdom wired the sale proceeds from the customer’s account into a bank account he established in the customer’s name without the customer’s knowledge or authorization. Finally, the findings stated that when Wisdom established the account, he listed himself as the signatory on the account and subsequently withdrew $2,800 from the bank account and used it for personal use.
According to his FINRA Broker Report (CRD), it appears that prior to working as a financial advisor with Natcity Investments, Wisdom was a registered-representative with Merrill Lynch in Cincinnati, Ohio.
