Alexander Leon: FINRA Investigates Signature Securities Advisor

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority recently initiated an investigation against Brooklyn financial advisor Alexander Leon (CRD# 2336148) in connection with alleged disclosure failures. FINRA records show that Mr. Leon is currently registered as a broker and an investment advisor with Flagstar Advisors and Signature Securities Group Corporation, respectively.

Mr. Leon’s BrokerCheck report discloses the recently announced FINRA investigation. Filed in February 2023, the disclosure states that FINRA determined he “failed to provide full and fair disclosure of all material facts to customers, including conflicts of interest, in connection with recommended securities transactions.” The disclosure provides no other information regarding the alleged underlying conduct.

A second disclosure on Mr. Leon’s BrokerCheck report concerns an investor complaint against him. Filed in 1998, the complaint alleged that as a representative of Josephthal & Company, he made an unauthorized transaction in the customer’s account. The complaint alleged damages of $50,000 and was denied by the firm.

According to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Alexander Leon holds 28 years of securities industry experience.
