Davee Schulte of Chula Vista, California, a stockbroker associated with Raymond James Financial Services has been accused of misappropriating customer funds.

FINRA Public Disclosure shows that in October 2025, an investor alleged or complained that Schulte misappropriated customer funds. The complaint does not specify damages, nor do these claims appear to be the subject of a customer initiated, investment related FINRA Securities Arbitration claim.

A complaint alleging or accusing a stockbroker of misappropriation is a serious charge. Investors sometimes make these allegations without any basis in fact. Stockbrokers very rarely actually misappropriate customer funds. However, investors need to be vigilant.

FINRA’s disciplinary-action database revealed at least 50 disciplinary actions involving misappropriation or conversion of funds. These actions do not include or only partially include instances where a stockbroker is permanently barred by FINRA, not for stealing customer funds, but for failing to cooperate with FINRA’s investigation of the stockbroker stealing customer funds.
