Kenneth Blumberg: $100K Fraud Complaint Against Hunt Valley Advisor

Stifel Nicolaus & Company financial advisors Kenneth Blumberg (CRD# 1585520) recently received an investor complaint alleging his advice resulted in damages of up to half a million dollars. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority records show that he is a broker and an investment advisor based in Hunt Valley, Maryland. 

Mr. Blumberg’s BrokerCheck report discloses multiple investor complaints. The most recent, filed in March 2022, alleges that as a Stifel Nicolaus representative, he recommended unsuitable investments, misrepresented material information, committed fraud, breached his fiduciary duty, acted negligently, and over-concentrated investments. The pending complaint alleges damages between $100,000 and $500,000. 

A second investor complaint, filed in 2017, alleged that while he was a Stifel Nicolaus representative, he breached contract, acted negligently, breached his fiduciary duty, and violated securities laws and rules. The complaint evolved into an arbitration proceeding before a FINRA panel, which in 2019 issued an award to the customer of $1,524,176.

A third investor complaint, filed in 2003, alleged that he committed fraud, breached contract, breached his fiduciary duty, committed fraud, churned investments, and misrepresented material facts while at Salomon Smith Barney. In 2004 the complaint reached a settlement of $27,000.
