FINRA Bars ex-Wells Fargo Advisors Broker Andrew Egber after Allegations of Theft 

According to public records, FINRA, the self-regulator, has reportedly barred financial advisor Andrew Egber (CRD#: 1894585) from working in the securities industry. 

FINRA has reportedly barred Egber, a former Wells Fargo Advisor broker after his alleged refusal to produce requested information and documents.  

Egber was reportedly accused of theft by his former employer, Wells Fargo, according to an article in Investment News this week.  

The firm reportedly initiated an internal review in March regarding the possible theft of client funds. Egber, who currently works at Egber-Lopez Investment Group, accepted FINRA’s findings without admitting or denying them, according to FINRA.

Egber reportedly has one pending customer dispute filed against him, along with other financial matters from previous years. The client issue related to allegations of outside investments made through Egber dates to May 2017, predating his move to Steward Partners.
