Wall Street Broker AF&Co Settles for $300,000 with SEC over SAR filings

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) just announced charges against Wall Street-based brokerage firm Albert Fried & Company (AF&Co) over failing to file Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) for more than a five-year period, according to an official statement from the regulator.
