Bobby Wayne Coburn Broker Investigation

Bobby Wayne Coburn, Securities America, Fort Meade, Florida

Are you concerned about investments with Bobby Wayne Coburn in Fort Meade, FL? If so, the securities attorneys at The White Law Group may be able to help you by filing a FINRA Dispute Resolution claim.

According to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), the regulator reportedly barred Coburn from association with any FINRA member in all capacities after he reportedly failed to provide information in FINRA’s investigation; therefore, according to FINRA, he is automatically barred from association with any FINRA member in all capacities.

FINRA reports the regulatory body was investigating allegations that Coburn was involved in the solicitation of multiple clients to invest in an unapproved private securities transaction and reportedly engaged in the settlement of a related customer complaint without the Firm’s knowledge or consent.

According to a settled customer complaint on April 15, 2016, “Customer invested $30,000 in a Costa Rica real estate development and did not receive payments due under Promissory Note.”

According to his FINRA BrokerCheck report, Coburn reportedly was affiliated with Securities America in Fort Meade, FL from February 2009 until April 2019 when he was reportedly discharged.

Investigating Potential Claims

The White Law Group is investigating potential lawsuits regarding the liability that Coburn’s former employers may have for failure to properly supervise Coburn.
