Continue reading this post to learn more about the allegations involving Mr. Gazdak. The information below can be found in his BrokerCheck profile, a Financial Industry Regulatory Authority record examined on February 21, 2025. 

2024 Dispute Seeks $1.6 Million in Damages

On October 17, 2024, an investor lodged a dispute involving Mr. Gazdak. The claim alleges breach of fiduciary duty, fraudulent inducement, negligence, breach of contract, and the violation of FINRA Rule 2010. According to a disclosure on his BrokerCheck profile, it stems from a private equity investment. The dispute, which is still pending, seeks $1,694,000 in damages.

Mr. Gazdak issued a “Broker Statement,” found on his BrokerCheck record, asserting that the allegations are meritless. In addition, he wrote that he was not the broker for the transactions that led to the dispute. “Moreover, the claimants’ allegations are directly contradicted by their written affirmations and the market performance of the investments at issue,” he added. “I will vigorously fight these claims in arbitration.”

2022 Dispute Alleges Fraud, Conversion

The above-described pending investor dispute is not the only one in Mr. Gazdak’s past. On May 2, 2022, another investor filed a claim involving him. In this case, the investor alleged fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, conversion, breach of contract, and civil conspiracy. As a disclosure on his BrokerCheck record reflects, the allegations stem from a promissory note investment. The dispute, which is still pending, seeks unspecified damages.

As with the 2024 dispute, Mr. Gazdak issued a “Broker Statement” regarding these allegations. Again, he asserted that they are meritless, adding that they stem from a company that raised investor funds and then defaulted on its promissory notes. “[T]he noteholders sued the company,” he added. “Instead of taking responsibility for the notes that it willingly entered into, they had concocted allegations against myself and other individuals.”

Alexander Capital Broker

As his BrokerCheck record reflects, Mr. Gazdak is a representative of Alexander Capital. That firm’s website features his professional biography[2], which details his background as its Managing Director and Head of Investment Banking. “He has worked on a broad range of transactions, including public equity and debt financings, restructurings, M&A and SPACs,” the profile reads. “ Prior to his career in Investment Banking, Mr. Gazdak was an entrepreneur who owned and managed an International IT Consulting and Services firm for 10 years, selling it in 2005.”

FINRA: Broker Based in Red Bank, New Jersey

Mr. Gazdak started his career as a broker when he registered with Oppenheimer & Company in 2010. He left the firm a year later for Aegis Capital, where he remained until 2014. That same year, he registered with Alexander Capital. He remains at the firm today, based at its office in Red Bank, New Jersey. With 14 years of experience as a broker, he has completed four industry exams, including the Series 79 and the Series 63.
