Financial Fraud Cases Against Broker/Dealers On The Rise

By Keith Griffin

ADVERTISEMENTS

Financial fraud is growing, and more broker/dealers are at the center of the scams. According to data from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the number of cases brought by the regulator involving broker/dealers rose significantly last year.

In 2009, 16% of the financial fraud cases generated by the SEC involved broker/dealers, compared with 9% in 2008. In 2007, 14% of cases involved broker/dealers.

The percentage of cases involving securities offerings also escalated last year - to 21% from 18% in 2008.
