In January 2002 Jason began working at FINRA then known as the NASD. There he organized and conducted major investigations and enforcement actions against investment firms for varying sales practice and regulatory violations. Among them was the highly publicized enforcement action against the top 12 investment firms for their conflict of interest violations between their research and investment banking departments. This action resulted in the "Global Settlement" with these investment firms paying 1.4 billion dollars in fines.
