Securities Arbitration Lawyers BlogBroker Matthew DiGregorio Who Has Worked at 18 Different Firms Under Investigation After FINRA Bar
Silver Law Group is investigating former New York broker Matthew DiGregorio after FINRA permanently barred him.
According to DiGregorio’s FINRA BrokerCheck report, FINRA permanently barred DiGregorio after he told FINRA staff that he does not intend to honor an award that a FINRA arbitration panel ordered him to pay to his former partners at a FINRA member firm. Further, the complaint DiGregorio was named a respondent in alleges that DiGregorio made false representations to the FINRA panel regarding claims that his child was involved in an accident in order to extend the hearing sessions.
This is not the first time DiGregorio has been punished by FINRA for similar misconduct. In August 2015, FINRA suspended DiGregorio for failing to comply with a settlement agreement or arbitration award or to satisfactorily update FINRA on the status of his compliance.
