Jody Vander Weide Barred For Refusing To Cooperate With FINRA And Outside Business Activity

Jody Vander Weide (CRD# 2571083) was barred after 29 years working as a broker in Grand Rapids, Michigan and Fort Wayne Indiana. At the time of the incident he was working at Osaic Wealth, Inc. Prior to that, he spent 17 years at Sigma Financial Corporation, where he was discharged for violating the firm’s policies by engaging in an undisclosed outside business activity as an unlicensed investment advisor representative.

Regulatory allegations against Weide included making false or misleading statements to his firms and to the Securities and Commercial Licensing Bureau. Specifically, he misrepresented the reason for his termination by Sigma Financial Corporation. He also suggested that he was unaware of the wrongfulness of charging unauthorized fees to customers without his broker dealer firm’s approval and attempted to erase his paper trail. He also made false statements about his registration application.

Following his termination from Sigma Financial Corporation he then failed to provide full disclosure of the circumstances that led to his termination to Osaic Wealth, Inc., which led to him being discharged from working there as well.
