Ronny Banerjee: Why Was Chelsea Advisor Fired by Voya?

Staten Island, New York financial advisor Ronny Banerjee (CRD# 3112832) was recently fired by his prior member firm in connection with alleged rule violations. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority records show that the former Voya Financial Advisors representative is currently registered as a broker with Chelsea Financial Services.

Mr. Banerjee’s BrokerCheck report discloses his termination from Voya Financial Advisors. Filed in January 2026, the disclosure states that the firm fired him in connection with allegations that he “engaged in outside business activities prior to receiving Firm approval.” The disclosure does not specify the nature of the activities.

Investors should be aware that FINRA Rule 3270 stipulates that advisors like Mr. Banerjee may not engage in unapproved outside business activities. “No registered person may be an employee, independent contractor, sole proprietor, officer, director or partner of another person, or be compensated, or have the reasonable expectation of compensation, from any other person as a result of any business activity outside the scope of the relationship with his or her member firm,” the rule states specifically, “unless he or she has provided prior written notice to the member, in such form as specified by the member.” Brokers who participate in unapproved outside business activities may be subject to disciplinary action from regulators or their member firms.

According to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Ronny Banerjee holds 27 years of securities industry experience. Based in Staten Island, New York, he has been registered as a broker with Chelsea Financial Services since May 2026. His past registrations include Voya Financial Advisors (State College, Pennsylvania; 2011-2026), ING Financial Advisors (State College, Pennsylvania; 2006-2011), and MML Investors Services (State College, Pennsylvania; 1998-2006). His credentials include the passage of three securities industry qualifying exams: the Securities Industry Essentials Examination, or SIE; the Uniform Securities Agent State Law Examination, or Series 63; and the Investment Company Products/Variable Contracts Representative Examination, or Series 6. He is licensed in Ohio. (Information current as of May 9, 2026.)
