OMAHA, Neb. -- Nebraska regulators have ordered an Omaha investment adviser to quit violating state securities laws and appear at a hearing to defend his practices.
State regulators say Ryan Jindra and his company, Envision Financial Group, charged improper fees of at least $773,000 since last August and filed misleading documents with the state.
The accusations state regulators make echo the ones the Securities and Exchange Commission made in a lawsuit filed last week to recover about $250,000 in missing money and seize the business's assets.
Jindra's firm attracted customers nationwide through referrals from a network of insurance agents who recruited clients for Envision.
The SEC says Jindra was managing about $3.1 million in assets when the lawsuit was filed.
