Nancy Hernandez-Guzman aBrian Daniel Hoffman

Nancy Hernandez-Guzman aBrian Daniel Hoffman (CRD #6280535) , is not currently registered and has a history of frequent transitions between firms, suggesting potential instability or dissatisfaction with his employment. His professional journey includes stints at multiple firms including Janney Montgomery Scott LLC, Oppenheimer & Co. Inc., and several others within a span of just a few years, from March 2016 to March 2024. Despite passing two general industry/product exams and two state securities law exams, Hoffman’s lack of any principal/supervisory exams highlights a limitation in his qualifications, which could be a red flag for potential clients seeking a seasoned advisor.

Brian Hoffman formerly Customer Complaint and Reviews

Brian Hoffman’s professional record includes a notable customer dispute, which reflects negatively on his professional conduct:

  • Customer Dispute (Closed – No Action)

  • Period: June 2022 to November 2023
  • Outcome: The complaint, received on February 2, 2024, was denied after a firm review, which determined that there was no evidence supporting the claim. The estimated damage was suggested to be in excess of $5,000, though no specific amount was confirmed.

Allegations Against Brian Hoffman

The specific allegations against Brian Hoffman include:

  • Failure to Execute Trades: Hoffman was accused of failing to perform necessary trades to fulfill the client’s financial plan, supposedly resulting in stagnant account growth.
  • Lack of Growth in Client Accounts: The client expected her accounts to grow through planned investments, which she claims did not occur due to Hoffman’s inaction.

These allegations, if true, particularly concerning his failure to adequately manage his client’s investments, cast serious doubts on his competency and diligence as a financial advisor.
