Without admitting or denying the findings, Veron consented to the sanction and to the entry of findings that he participated in private securities transactions totaling nearly $1.8 million, without first providing a written notice to his member firm or obtaining its approval prior to participating, and in violation of the firm's WSPs. The findings stated that Veron formed a company and served as its president. Shortly after forming the company, Veron began selling shares in the company, including approximately $1.74 million worth of shares to firm customers and another $50,000 worth of shares to a non-customer. Veron has since repaid two investors the amount of their investment plus interest. In response to the firm's annual compliance attestations, Veron provided false answers regarding his participation in private securities transactions and outside business activities.
