Investor Alleges Eric Christensen Misappropriated Investments

Eric Christensen (CRD #: 4719720), a broker registered with UBS Financial Services, was recently involved in an investor dispute, according to his BrokerCheck record, accessed on July 16, 2022. If you want to learn more about his conduct as a broker, read on.

Investor Dispute

On April 28, 2022, an investor filed a dispute alleging Eric Christensen engaged in criminal theft and misappropriation from December 1, 2009, to June 25, 2019. The client sought $597,517.84 but the dispute was denied by the firm.

However, investors should know that firms can deny disputes without allowing a third-party review. Investors can still seek out FINRA arbitration or legal action following a denial and potentially recover their losses.

FINRA Rule 2150

FINRA Rule 2150 prohibits the wrongful use of investors’ funds. Criminal theft may qualify as a statutory disqualification, which prevents brokers from associating with any firm.
