FINRA has expelled broker dealer NYPPEX, LLC and barred two former senior executives.

A failure to respond appropriately to FINRA requests for information has led to the expulsion of broker-dealer NYPPEX, LLC from membership and the barring of the firm’s former CEO, Laurence Allen, and CCO Michael Shunk.

A FINRA panel also found that NYPPEX and Allen took part in securities fraud.
