Future Income Payments, LLC Losses with Former FSC Securities Corporation Broker Brian Pearce

FSC Securities Corporation

Erez Law is currently investigating former FSC Securities Corporation broker Brian Pearce (CRD# 1334784) regarding losses due to investments in Future Income Payments, LLC (FIPs). Brian Pearce was registered with World Equity Group, Inc. in Winter Haven, Florida from 2019 to 2021. Previously, Brian Pearce was registered with Taylor Capital Management Inc. in Winter Haven, Florida from 2018 to 2019 and with FSC Securities Corporation in Winter Haven, Florida from 2012 to 2018.

In November 2021, Brian Pearce was sanctioned to pay a $5,000 civil and administrative penalty and fine, $9,723 in disgorgement, and was suspended for seven months after he, “consented to the sanctions and to the entry of findings that he participated in private securities transactions totaling $607,730 without prior disclosure to, and approval from his member firm. The findings stated that Pearce solicited investors to purchase $607,730 in securities of a company that represented itself as a structured cash flow investment that purchased pensions at a discount from pensioners and then sold a portion of those pensions as a pension stream to investors. The company generally promised investors a seven to eight-percent rate of return on their investment. Pearce received a total of $24,309 in commissions in connection with his sales of the securities. Pearce’s firm prohibited its registered representatives from participating in private securities transactions without prior written approval from the firm and Pearce did not provide notice to the firm prior to participating in the sales.”

In December 2015, the Florida Office of Financial Regulation sanctioned Brian Pearce to pay a $6,000 civil and administrative penalty and fine and was sanctioned to a cease and desist.
