History Of Larry Bowman

Bowman first became registered with FINRA as a GSR in June 1993. In June 2018,
Bowman became registered as a GSR through his association with Heritage Financial
Systems, Inc. (n/k/a Heritage Financial Systems, LLC) (BD No. 133019). On December
24, 2019, the firm filed a Uniform Termination Notice for Securities Industry
Registration (Form U5) terminating Bowman’s association, stating that Bowman was
permitted to resign after the firm “discovered that an unauthorized email account was
created for Mr. Bowman.”

remains subject to FINRA’s jurisdiction pursuant to Article V, Section 4(a) of
FINRA’s By-Laws. Respondent does not have any relevant disciplinary history.

Larry Bowman Report

This matter originated from a Form U5 filing.
FINRA Rule 3270 provides, in relevant part, that, “frilo registered person may be an
employee, independent contractor, sole proprietor, officer, director or partner of another
person, or be compensated, or have the reasonable expectation of compensation, from
any other person as a result of any business activity outside the scope of the relationship
with his or her member firm, unless he or she has provided prior written notice to the
member, in such form as specified by the member.” A violation of FINRA Rule 3270
also constitutes a violation of FINRA Rule 2010.
During the relevant period, Heritage Financial Systems’ written supervisory procedures
prohibited registered representatives from accepting compensation as a result of any
business activity outside the scope of employment without providing written notice to the
firm. Bowman signed a compliance questionnaire on December 11, 2018 indicating that
he had not engaged in any outside business activity.

conducted fmancial modeling and analysis outside the scope of his relationship with
Heritage Financial Services for three different companies. He was paid $18,750 for his
work. Bowman did not provide prior written notice of his outside business activities to
the firm.
Therefore, Respondent violated FINRA Rules 3270 and 2010.

Penalties, Punishments & Sanctions

■ a 45-calendar day suspension from associating with any FINRA member in all
capacities, and
■ a $5,000 fine

The fine shall be due and payable either immediately upon reassociation with a member
firm or prior to any application or request for relief from any statutory disqualification
resulting from this or any other event or proceeding, whichever is earlier.
Respondent specifically and voluntarily waives any right to claim an inability to pay, now
or at any time after the execution of this AWC, the monetary sanction imposed in this
matter.

the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, he may not be associated with any
FINRA member in any capacity, including clerical or ministerial functions, during
the period of the bar or suspension. See FINRA Rules 8310 and 8311.
