Hedge Fund Broker Indicted

A hedge fund broker has been indicted for helping clients in trading mutual fund shares after hours. According to a statement from the New York Attorney General's office, James Wilson, a stockbroker from New York-based Trautman Wasserman & Co., Inc., was charged with crimes related to late trades he placed on behalf of the firm's hedge fund clients in the past few years. The charges include a scheme to defraud in the first degree, falsifying business records in the first degree and securities fraud in violation of New York State's Martin Act.
