UPDATE 4/11/2020: According to FINRA’s February 2020 Disciplinary Actions: “Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (CRD #361, New York, New York) December 19, 2019 – An AWC was issued in which the firm was censured and fined $130,000. Without admitting or denying the findings, the firm consented to the sanctions and to the entry of findings that it effected customer sale transactions of municipal bonds on a discretionary basis in amounts lower than the minimum denomination of the respective issues. The findings stated that the firm generally relied on data it received from third-party vendors to determine whether a transaction was below an issue’s minimum denomination, and the violative transactions are primarily attributable to inaccuracies in that vendor data. The firm has already voluntarily rescinded the violative transactions or otherwise reimbursed affected customers. (FINRA Case #2017053432301)”
