Ricky Allen McReynolds Suspended for Failure to Provide Information to FINRA
According to FINRA, Ricky Allen McReynolds (CRD #1244397) of Oakland Park, Florida, was suspended from association with any FINRA member in all capacities pursuant to FINRA Rule 9552(d) for failure to provide information or keep information current as required by FINRA. The suspension began on November 14, 2025, and was subsequently lifted on March 27, 2026, under FINRA Case #2025086229601.
The lifting of McReynolds's suspension indicates that he remedied the deficiency that triggered the suspension before the period during which it could convert to a permanent bar.
FINRA Rule 9552(d) provides a graduated enforcement mechanism: FINRA first issues a notice to show cause, then imposes a suspension if the deficiency is not addressed, and finally converts that suspension to a permanent bar under Rule 9552(h) if the deficiency remains unresolved. The ability to lift the suspension by addressing the underlying deficiency reflects the rule's design as both a penalty and an incentive for compliance.
The requirement to keep registration information current and to respond to FINRA information requests is an ongoing obligation for all registered persons. Changes in employment, disclosed events such as customer complaints or legal proceedings, and other reportable matters must be updated in registration filings in a timely manner. When these updates are not made, FINRA's ability to monitor the industry and protect investors is compromised.
Investors should be aware that a suspension — even one that has been lifted — indicates a period during which the broker was not in compliance with regulatory requirements. The full history of any broker, including suspensions and their resolution, is available through FINRA BrokerCheck. Checking this information before and during any relationship with a financial professional is a key step in investor due diligence.
