Gentle tap on Northern Trust

Northern Trust Securities fined $600,000 - Yahoo! Finance: "Securities industry regulators have fined brokerage Northern Trust Securities $600,000 for inadequate supervision of sales of complex mortgage securities and deficiencies in monitoring some large-volume trades of stocks and bonds.

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the industry's self-policing organization, announced the fine Thursday against Chicago-based Northern Trust Securities. From January 2007 to June 2008, the regulators said, 43.5 percent of the firm's transactions weren't monitored or reviewed."
