Statement On Jury’s Verdict In Trial of Gregory Grenda And The Grenda Group - Gurbir Grewal, SEC, Director, Division Of Enforcement

Date 10/12/2021

“We are pleased with today’s jury verdict holding investment advisers Gregory Grenda and the Grenda Group, LLC, liable for securities fraud. Investment advisers have a duty to disclose all material information to their clients and today’s verdict makes clear that Gregory Grenda and the Grenda Group did not meet this duty. Instead, they committed securities fraud by failing to tell their clients that the Commission had barred Grenda’s father, Walter Grenda, from associating with an investment adviser because of his fraudulent conduct at a predecessor firm. Rather than share this important fact with its clients so it could inform their investing decisions, Gregory Grenda and the Grenda Group kept it from them. Today’s verdict underscores that the Commission will take all steps necessary to enforce its orders and protect investors.”
