Edmonds Stockbroker Fined and Suspended for Improper Sales of Private Securities

David Taylor of Farmers Financial Solutions, the brokerage arm of Farmers Insurance, improperly sold $395,000 in private securities to his clients. Mr. Taylor established a company, Interactive Performance Solutions, LLC, which planned to design and sells insurance sales tracking software. While working for Farmers, Mr. Taylor started working as an officer at Interactive, and also solicited investment in Interactive. Private securities, like ownership units of Interactive, are usually much riskier than investments that are publicly traded, like stock traded through a stock exchange, mutual funds, or even exchange traded funds. The incentives to sell private securities can be strong. In Mr. Taylor’s case, it was trying to make his own startup venture succeed.
