Ma Rosa Linan Abrego, formerly with Merrill Lynch, Barred from Securities Industry

Have you lost money with financial advisor Ma Rosa Linan Abrego from McAllen, Texas?  We are looking into allegations made by FINRA (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) against Abrego. FINRA barred her from the securities industry after she failed to respond to an investigation.  Linan Abrego was being investigated after he was terminated by his former brokerage firm, Merrill Lynch, regarding allegations that she misappropriated or stole funds from clients.

Abrego was a registered representative and financial advisor with Merrill Lynch from December 2016 to July 2019.  She worked out of a branch office in McAllen, Texas.

Broker-dealers like Merrill Lynch have a responsibility to adequately supervise all representatives who are registered through their firm, including investments sold by their registered representatives.  Broker-dealers also must take steps to ensure that their financial advisors follow all securities rules and regulations.  When broker-dealers fail to adequately supervise their registered representatives, they may be liable for investment losses sustained by customers.
