About James McDermott of Osaic Wealth, Inc.?
James McDermott (CRD #2483480) currently registered with Osaic Wealth, Inc. in Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois, has had a varied career with multiple transitions across prominent firms. Since beginning his brokerage career in 1994, McDermott has been affiliated with several major firms, including Raymond James and Oppenheimer & Co. Although licensed in 27 U.S. states and territories and having passed three general industry/product exams along with two multi-state securities law exams, his record is marred by a customer dispute and a termination event. His failure to complete any principal/supervisory exams raises questions about his readiness for higher-level responsibilities in the industry.
