Lori Elizabeth Simpson
AWC/2009017046701
Associated Person Simpson wrongfully obtained $1,120.64 from a member firm’s affiliated company, and then misused the funds for her own benefit. The firm and its affiliated company had established company guidelines wherein certain expenses were automatically approved if the expenses fell below a certain dollar threshold, and Simpson consistently submitted expenses below the firm’s established threshold for automatic approval without a supervisor reviewing them. Simpson failed to respond to FINRA requests for documents and information.
