Industry Bar for Broker-Dealer Margin Clerk for Obstruction

In the Matter of Anthony Coppola, Respondent

  • 2007

Respondent was employed at John Dawson & Associates, a broker-dealer registered with the Commission, as its margin clerk. His responsibilities in that position included handling margin-related issues in the firm’s customer and employee accounts and, on occasion, handling issues related to JDAI’s proprietary trading accounts. He obstructed an SEC investigation into the firm and accordingly was barred from the industry (and criminally convicted).
