Three recent criminal cases raise concerns that wealth managers and regulators aren’t detecting alleged fraud quickly enough or disclosing basic information about crimes and disciplinary problems.

The rare move to set aside the regulator’s ruling came more than a decade after the rep ran into trouble by adding notes about his client into a software program.

The investments can pose substantially more risks than typical initial public offerings.

The rep reeled in at least a dozen victims to the complex scam even though he was suspended from the industry for a different case, according to investigators.

The regulator will be stepping up scrutiny of advisors on this issue and others, including ESG and cybersecurity.
