Sam Oakley, a managing director for Pinnacle Asset Management, leader of The Oakley Group, and a financial consultant with Raymond James Financial Services, Inc., member FINRA/SIPC, was recently named to Barron s list of the Top 1,200 Financial Advisors. The prestigious 2021 list was published March 14 and draws from all 50 states, plus the District of Columbia. Oakley also appeared in Barron s Top 1,200 Advisers (Top 1,000 prior to 2013) list from 2009 - the list s inaugural issue - to 2017. He was ineligible to apply for Barron s 2018 and 2019 lists due to moving The Oakley Group to Pinnacle Financial Partners. Oakley once again made the Top 1,200 Financial Advisors list in 2020.
The Oregon Division of Financial Regulation issued $220,000 in civil penalties, and Raymond James Financial Services, Inc. agreed to pay $123,279 in restitution to the victims of the excessive trading practices of Gary Dodds.
Dodds, a stock broker for Raymond James Financial Services, conducted churning, a method of excessive trading to receive additional commissions, on several of his clients’ accounts from 2016 to 2018, according to court documents.
The division’s investigation revealed Dodds made unsuitable recommendations and sales of securities for his clients and failed to maintain proper documentation of his trading activities, Oregon officials said in a news release. The division also learned that Raymond James Financial Services was aware of his actions, but did not take adequate corrective steps.
