Jennifer McIntyre: Did Raymond James Advisor Misappropriate Funds?

Chattanooga financial advisor Jennifer McIntyre (CRD# 5853811) allegedly misappropriated funds, according to a recent investor complaint. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority records show that she is a broker and an investment advisor with Raymond James & Associates.

Ms. McIntyre’s BrokerCheck report discloses one investor complaint. Field in October 2023, it alleges that as a representative of Raymond James & Associates, she misappropriated an investor’s funds. The pending complaint alleges unspecified damages.

For reference, FINRA rules forbid brokers like Ms. McIntyre from misusing their investors’ funds. FINRA Rule 2150 specifically stipulates that no registered representative “shall make improper use of a customer’s securities or funds.” The misappropriation of investor funds may also violate FINRA Rule 2010, which requires brokers to “observe high standards of commercial honor and just and equitable principles of trade” as they conduct their business. Brokers who violate these rules may be found liable for damages in the event of losses.

Raymond James’ website features a profile of Ms. McIntyre that describes her “comprehensive, solution-focused approach” to servicing her clients. “Jennifer is dedicated to managing and preserving wealth for you and your family,” the profile states. “Jennifer works hard to build and preserve your investments, while assisting you in pursuing your goals through long-term financial solutions using investment strategy management, retirement planning (including IRA’s, 401(k)’s), 529 education savings and more.”

According to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Jennifer McIntyre holds 12 years of securities industry experience. Based in Chattanooga, Tennessee, she has been a broker and an investment advisor with Raymond James & Associates since 2010 and 2011, respectively. Her credentials include the passage of three securities industry qualifying exams: the General Securities Representative Examination, or Series 7; the Uniform Combined State Law Examination, or Series 66; and the Securities Industry Essentials Examination, or SIE. She is licensed in California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and Washington.
