Peter Gerhard Klaas (CRD #2381681) is a former broker and investment advisor, and was employed at El Segundo, CA-based Cetera Advisor Networks since 05/2017.

Cetera notified Klaas that he was subject to disqualification stemming from the Consent Cease and Desist Order dated March 12, 2018 filed by the Securities Commissioner of Colorado. On 4/18/2018, Klaas resigned from Centera.
Klaas is also the subject of a pending customer dispute, filed on 9/29/2017, requesting damages of $456,529.00. The complaint stems from a trade made in August of 2015 that was misrepresented, and used strategies that were described as “unsuitable.” As a result, the client suffered monetary losses.
Previous customer complaints during Klaas’ tenure at Allegis between 2014 and 2017 were either settled or withdrawn.
