Pinnocchio with his large nose

Michael Todd Hogan of Plymouth, Minnesota, a stockbroker formerly registered with Voya Financial Advisors, Inc., is the subject of a customer initiated investment related written complaint on July 7, 2017, where the customer sought $350,000.00 in damages based upon accusations that Hogan made misrepresentations about variable annuity products, and made unsuitable investment recommendations to the customer.

Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) Public Disclosure confirms that Hogan has been referenced in six additional customer initiated investment related disputes pertaining to allegations of his improper conduct while employed with Fortis Investors, Inc., Voya Financial Advisors, Inc., ING Financial Partners, Inc., and Washington Square Securities, Inc. In particular, on June 30, 1999, a customer filed an investment related written complaint involving Hogan’s conduct, alleging that unauthorized mutual funds trades were effected in the customer’s account, and that the customer was not apprised about the fees for investing or provided investment documentation.

Subsequently, on August 29, 2007, a customer filed an investment related written complaint regarding Hogan’s activities, in which the customer alleged that an equity indexed annuity and variable annuity had been misrepresented. On October 13, 2008, another customer filed an investment related written complaint regarding Hogan’s activities, alleging that omissions were made to the customer concerning the income requirements of a variable annuity’s guaranteed income benefit rider. Moreover, on January 14, 2010, a customer filed an investment related written complaint pertaining to Hogan’s conduct, alleging that a John Hancock variable universal life insurance policy was not suitable for the customer.
