Former Newport, Revere rep barred for failure to testify
George Dahl appeared at Finra hearing but did not provide requested testimony.
Finra has barred former registered representative George Dahl for failure to provide testimony to its staff at a hearing that was looking into his conduct.
In March 2016, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority Inc. issued a letter of acceptance, waiver and consent through which Mr. Dahl consented to several findings: that he willfully failed to timely amend his Form U4, performed outside business activities for compensation without providing written notice to his firm, executed unauthorized trades in a customer’s account, and caused his employer to maintain inaccurate books and records. At the time, Mr. Dahl was suspended from associating with a Finra member firm in any capacity for nine months and fined $20,000.
