Brent Pine: $250K Complaint Against CWM, Ex-Geneos Advisor

Scottsdale, Arizona financial advisor Brent Pine (CRD# 1618007) allegedly made improper investment recommendations, according to a recent investor complaint. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority and Securities and Exchange Commission records show that the former Cetera Advisor Networks broker is currently registered as an investment adviser with CWM, doing business as Carson Wealth.

The pending complaint alleges damages of $250,000.

Carson Wealth’s website includes a profile of Mr. Pine that describes his experience, qualifications, and philosophy as an advisor. “Brent began his career in the financial services industry in 1987,” it explains. “He acts in a Fiduciary capacity when rendering advice and is careful to always place his client’s needs before his own. He is driven to serve and is committed to the principles of trust, integrity, and full transparency.”
