James Blake Daughtry is Barred from the Securities Industry
In March 2020, James Daughtry was barred by FINRA for refusing to appear for on-the-record testimony requested by FINRA in connection with an investigation into potentially fraudulent and unauthorized transactions in customers' accounts, and terminated from the brokerage firm he was registered with.
Upon information and belief, at least one investor has now filed an arbitration against Jim Daughtry's former brokerage firm claiming that she invested with James Daughtry, but her funds ended up with Graysail - which is allegedly a defunct IRA that was housed at a custodial firm referred to as Equity Trust. Upon information and belief, forged documents allegedly caused this investor to lend nearly all of her assets to an entity named Small World Capital. Meanwhile, this investor knew nothing about these transactions.
All of this happened during Daughtry’s time as a Kestra broker, although marketing materials referred to his office as The Daughtry Group. As a result, Kestra had a duty to properly supervise him and his activities, ensuring the suitability of investments and trading activities, preventing misappropriation, and checking for unapproved outside business activities while protecting all of its customers from fraud and negligence. Yet because Daughtry sold away a product that Kestra had not approved, violating the firm’s and FINRA’s rules, this retiree investor lost the bulk of her retirement savings.
