Michael Charles Grande (CRD #1219255, Fort Lauderdale, Florida)

April 24, 2024 – Grande was named a respondent in a FINRA complaint alleging that he failed to provide information requested by FINRA in connection with its investigation into the suitability of his recommendations to customers to engage in short-term trading of mutual funds. The complaint alleges that during a call with FINRA, Grande stated that he did not have access to the paperwork related to the customers identified in an information request and that he could not recall the specific strategies that were in place for the identified customers. Subsequently, FINRA sent Grande another request for the same information. Ultimately, Grande failed to respond to FINRA’s requests by their due dates, and he did not request extensions of time to respond. The information FINRA sought was material information about the suitability of Grande’s mutual fund transactions and his failure to provide the requested information significantly impeded the completion of FINRA’s investigation into his potential misconduct.
