Most recently, in June 2018, the SEC barred Larry Werbel  from associating with any “broker dealer, investment advisor, municipal securities dealer, municipal advisor, transfer agent or NRSRO.”  This censure follows Larry Werber’s guilty plea to “investment advisor fraud.”

In addition, during his career, Larry Werbel has been discharged by three separate employers for sales practice misconduct.  Larry Werbel has also been the subject of numerous customer complaints, including the following:

  • October 2016—“Client is alleging suitability, negligence and failure to supervise…” The matter was settled for $125,000.
