Who is Michael Carter formerly with Morgan Stanley?

Michael Carter

Michael Carter (CRD #3232017) who was formerly registered as a broker with Morgan Stanley and located in McLean, Virginia, is a subject of one of our many securities industry sales practice abuse investigations. Prior to Morgan Stanley, Michael Carter was associated with other investment advisory and brokerage firms with a history of customer complaints and securities industry regulatory problems. Michael Carter has had his own regulatory problems with federal and state regulators. First and foremost, the SEC filed a civil suit against Michael Carter which was settled by consent against Michael Carter, permanently enjoining him from future violations of the securities laws. The SEC complaint alleged that Michael Carter misappropriated approximately $6 million from brokerage customers and an elderly investment advisory client while he served as their financial advisor. Not only was Michael Carter permanently enjoined, he was permanently barred from the securities industry in any capacity and ordered to pay over $4 million in disgorgement of his ill-gotten gains.

But regardless of whether an arbitration award was entered, a settlement occurred, or the customer complaint is still pending, the allegations made by customers are red flags which should put all current and former customers of Michael Carter at Morgan Stanley on alert to review carefully the activity and performance of their accounts and question whether Michael Carter has engaged in any stockbroker misconduct that may have caused them investment losses. The large number of customer complaints at Morgan Stanley also raises questions about the brokerage firm’s supervisory practices.
