Ameritas – In the News

FINRA v. Ameritas Investment Corp – The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) fined Ameritas Investment Corp., $100,000 and has suspended and fined one of its brokers over allegations that the broker induced customers to take on additional mortgage and/or home equity debt in order to purchase variable universal life insurance policies (VULs). FINRA alleged that Ameritas failed to adequately supervise the broker, who was based in New Jersey, for advertising violations related to her financial plans. FINRA found that the financial plans were misleading and that the recommendations to customers to purchase VUL policies were unsuitable. FINRA found that the broker used the misleading financial plans with more than 220 customers whom she recruited through her separate college-planning business.
