FINRA’s investigation began in October of 2019 after both Transamerica and Proequities filed Form U5 amendments indicating that there was a pending arbitration filed by a customer alleging that Singh invested their funds into a fraudulent investment. Farmers’ then terminated Singh’s registration with a Form U5 filed on November 6, 2019.
Singh initially cooperated with the FINRA investigation, but on August 18, she indicated in a phone call with FINRA staff that she would not provide on-the-record testimony at any time. Therefore, FINRA barred Singh indefinitely as of 8/28/2020.
FINRA issued an indefinite suspension against Singh on October 27, 2020. This action was issued for failing to comply with the previous arbitration against her, which led to awards totaling $622,929.21 in favor of the claimants and her former employer, ProEquities. The sum includes fees for filings, for hearings, member fees, and a fee for one discovery-related motion filed by Singh. As of October 27, she is suspended indefinitely until the arbitration awards are completely paid.
Two customer disputes filed on 4/29/2020 allege that Singh solicited both clients into investment contracts away from the firm, known as “selling away.” The first client requested damages of $75,000, and the claim was settled for $45,357.28. The second client requested damages of $50,000, and the claim was settled for $29,642.72.
Another customer dispute filed on 9/26/2019 alleges that Singh “induced” them to invest into two investment contracts with Singh’s company, Express Asset and Wealth Management. The clients made two investments. The first was $300,000, and the second was $112,500, totaling $412,500. The amount of requested damages is $1,237,500.00, and this case is currently “pending.”
