ADV DRP - ADVISORY AFFILIATE
No Information Filed
This DRP should be removed from the ADV record because the advisory affiliate(s) is no longer associated with the adviser.
This DRP should be removed from the ADV record because: (1) the event or proceeding occurred more than ten years ago or (2) the adviser is
registered or applying for registration with the SEC or reporting as an exempt reporting adviser with the SEC and the event was resolved in the
adviser's or advisory affiliate's favor.
If you are registered or registering with a state securities authority , you may remove a DRP for an event you reported only in response to Item

11.D(4), and only if that event occurred more than ten years ago. If you are registered or registering with the SEC, you may remove a DRP for any
event listed in Item 11 that occurred more than ten years ago.
This DRP should be removed from the ADV record because it was filed in error, such as due to a clerical or data-entry mistake. Explain the
circumstances:

the IARD or CRD for the event? If the answer is "Yes," no other information on this DRP must be provided.

Describe the allegations related to this regulatory action (your response must fit within the space provided):
WITHOUT ADMITTING OR DENYING THE FINDINGS, THE FIRM CONSENTED TO THE SANCTIONS AND TO THE ENTRY OF FINDINGS THAT IT FAILED TO HAVE
EITHER WRITTEN PROCEDURES OR A SUPERVISORY SYSTEM IN PLACE PERTAINING TO THE CREATION AND DISSEMINATION OF CONSOLIDATED
REPORTS. THE FINDINGS STATED THAT 39 OF THE FIRM'S APPROXIMATELY 140 REGISTERED REPRESENTATIVES USED MULTIPLE SYSTEMS TO PREPARE
AND DISTRIBUTE CONSOLIDATED REPORTS TO CUSTOMERS. TEMPLATES USED BY 21 OF THE REGISTERED REPRESENTATIVES ALLOWED FOR MANUAL
ENTRY OF ACCOUNT INFORMATION. THE FIRM DISTRIBUTED APPROXIMATELY 6,800 CONSOLIDATED REPORTS TO CUSTOMERS, AND APPROXIMATELY
4,500 OF THOSE CONSOLIDATED REPORTS WERE GENERATED USING TEMPLATES THAT ALLOWED FOR MANUAL ENTRIES. ALTHOUGH MOST OF THE
CONSOLIDATED REPORTS CONTAINED ADEQUATE DISCLOSURE, THE TEMPLATES USED BY 7 REPRESENTATIVES DID NOT. THE FIRM IMPLEMENTED
PROCEDURES RELATING TO CONSOLIDATED REPORTS THAT REQUIRED REPRESENTATIVES TO, AMONG OTHER ITEMS, SUBMIT TEMPLATES TO THE
COMPLIANCE DEPARTMENT PRIOR TO USE AND PROVIDED FOR THE REVIEW OF CONSOLIDATED REPORTS DURING ANNUAL BRANCH EXAMINATIONS.
THESE PROCEDURES, HOWEVER, WERE NOT CONSISTENTLY ENFORCED AND WERE INADEQUATE IN THAT THEY DID NOT PROVIDE FOR VERIFICATION
OF MANUALLY ENTERED ACCOUNT ASSETS OR VALUATION INFORMATION. FURTHER, APPROXIMATELY 2,300 CONSOLIDATED REPORTS WERE NEITHER
REVIEWED NOR RETAINED BY THE FIRM.
