David Francis Dalton Suspended by FINRA
An AWC was issued in which Dalton was assessed a deferred fine of $7,500 and suspended from association with any FINRA member in all capacities for three months. Without admitting or denying the findings, Dalton consented to the sanctions and to the entry of findings that he exercised discretionary trading authority in customers’ accounts without having first obtained written authorization from the customers or his member firm to treat the accounts as discretionary.
