How FINRA and SEC Rules Apply
Complaints about misrepresentation, unsuitable investments, and failure to follow client instructions often trigger regulatory scrutiny. Several core regulatory frameworks are especially relevant:
- FINRA Rule 2210 (Communications with the Public): Requires brokers and firms to ensure all written and oral communications are fair, balanced, and not misleading. Allegations of misrepresentation suggest potential violations, including the possibility of exaggerated or incomplete product descriptions.
- FINRA Rule 3110 (Supervision): Firms must supervise their brokers and maintain a robust compliance system to handle customer complaints. A lapse can expose both the firm and the individual advisor to liability.
- Regulation Best Interest (Reg BI): This 2020 SEC rule enhances the standard owed to retail investors. It requires that broker-dealers and advisors act in the customer’s best interest and not place their own interests ahead of the investor’s. Reg BI includes:
- Disclosure: Clear disclosure of fees, scope of services, and potential conflicts.
- Care: Diligent evaluation of risks, costs, and alternatives.
- Conflict Management: Identification and mitigation or elimination of incentives working against investor interests.
- Firm-wide Compliance: Ongoing efforts to promote a culture that prioritizes investor interests.
Why These Allegations Matter for Ameriprise and Huntington Clients
Clients of Ameriprise Financial Services, LLC, Huntington Financial Advisors, and The Huntington Investment Company entrust significant assets to their advisors. Repeated complaints against Jeremy Hershey, particularly matters involving settlements for alleged misrepresentation or unsuitable investments, raise key concerns:
- Did Mr. Hershey fully disclose all risks, fees, and incentives related to your investment?
- Were investment recommendations truly aligned with your best interest, or might there have been hidden conflicts?
- Was your complaint, if any, handled properly and escalated to compliance?
Even when a settlement occurs without any admission of fault, it may indicate that customer losses were significant or that unresolved issues existed. Our attorneys use former Wall Street defense experience and deep knowledge of brokerage compliance to evaluate every aspect of your situation.

- No SEC Civil Suits: No public SEC administrative, criminal, or civil actions against him.
