Alan David Goddard Jr.
AWC/2009016157802
AWC/2009016157802
Goddard actively engaged in a member firm’s investment banking and
securities business
as a principal without proper registration.
Goddard signed selling
agreements and consulting agreements with issuers on the firm’s
behalf as an officer of
the firm and worked closely with the firm’s outside counsel to
establish the terms of selling
agreements and private placement offerings that the firm
conducted. Unbeknownst to
Goddard, the firm’s CCO amended the firm’s Application for
Broker-Dealer Registration
(Form BD) to list Goddard as the firm’s CEO.
During
Goddard’s entire association with the firm, he was only registered
as a general securities
representative; Goddard took the Series 24 examination but failed.
Goddard erroneously
believed that he could function in the capacities set forth above
without a principal’s
license.
Alan David Goddard Jr.: Fined $10,000; Suspended 45 days
