Troy Brown: Edward Jones Advisor Receives Investor Complaint

Oklahoma City financial advisor Troy Brown (CRD# 2262142) allegedly breached his fiduciary duty to a client, according to a recent investor complaint. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority records show that he is currently registered as a broker and an investment advisor with Edward Jones.

Mr. Brown’s BrokerCheck report discloses two investor complaints. The most recent, filed in April 2024, alleges that as a representative of Edward Jones, he breached his fiduciary duty to a client by permitting the client’s power of attorney “to name himself as sole beneficiary of [the] client’s account when he allegedly knew [the] client had diminished capacity.” The pending complaint alleges unspecified damages.

An earlier investor complaint, filed in 2009, alleged that as a representative of Edward Jones, he provided the client with poor advice. The complaint alleged damages of $5,000 and was denied by the firm.

Edward Jones’ website includes a profile of Mr. Brown in which he describes his background, experience, and approach to investment management. “I have a passion and the experience to help the people of Oklahoma by creating risk-appropriate strategies to help meet their long-term financial goals,” he writes. “Serving over 700 households, my background in the areas of finance and economics is an asset to my clients. I custom tailor portfolio solutions to clients’ specific needs while always considering what is most important to them.”

According to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Troy Brown holds 30 years of securities industry experience. Based in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, he has been registered as a broker and an investment advisor with Edward Jones since 1993 and 1995, respectively. His credentials include the passage of four securities industry qualifying exams: the General Securities Representative Examination, or Series 7; the Securities Industry Essentials Examination, or SIE; the Uniform Securities Agent State Law Examination, or Series 63; and the Uniform Investment Adviser Law Examination, or Series 65. He holds 29 state licenses. (Information current as of May 18, 2024.)
