The securities broker-dealer unit of Citizens Financial Group in Rhode Island was fined $850,000 by the NASD for what the NASD labeled were some of the broadest violations it has found since new rules allowed banks into the area seven years ago, including failure to properly supervise areas like telemarketing, college-savings-plan sales, and the sale of complex vehicles to older investors.
