Ameriprise Financial Services, Inc. (CRD® #6363, Minneapolis, Minnesota)and David Bradley Tysk (CRD #1782289, Eden Prairie, Minnesota). The firm was censured and fined $100,000. Tysk was fined $50,000 and suspended from association with any FINRA® member in any capacity for three months. The sanctions were based on findings that Tysk altered computer notes of customer contacts after the customer complained about the suitability of a recommendation. The findings stated that Tysk knew or should have known the importance of customer-related notes in the event of complaints. Tysk’s concealed alterations of his notes did not comply with the clear import of the document-retention policies in the firm›s code of conduct. Tysk failed to inform the firm of the alterations when he provided a copy of the notes to be produced in discovery during an arbitration proceeding. The customer became suspicious of the notes and requested further discovery to determine whether the notes had been altered after he lodged his complaint with the firm. The firm and Tysk opposed the requests.
