On October 15, 2013, the Banking Commissioner entered a Consent Order (No. CO-13-8116-S) with respect to UBS Financial Services Inc., a Connecticut registered broker-dealer.  The Consent Order grew out of a multi-state investigation and global settlement by the North American Securities Administrators Association, Inc. (“NASAA”) into the firm’s registration practices between 2004 and 2010  regarding firm Client Service Associates, some of whom were permitted to accept orders from clients.  The multi-state investigation found that, on certain occasions, some UBS Client Service Associates, although registered in other states, accepted unsolicited orders to buy or sell securities from clients residing in Connecticut at a time when the Client Service Associates were not also registered under Connecticut’s securities laws.  The Consent Order alleged that, in conjunction with the practice, the firm failed to discharge its supervisory responsibilities, failed to maintain order tickets accurately identifying the person who accepted client orders and failed to abide by state agent registration requirements.

The Consent Order directed the firm to refrain from regulatory violations and to remit $114,457.79 to the department within ten days.  Of that amount, $50,000 constituted an administrative fine and $64,457.79 represented reimbursement for past due agent registration fees for the period from 2004 to 2010.
