The arbitration claim is currently pending before the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) (FINRA Arbitration Case No. 10-1406).

He was formerly a registered representative for AIG Financial advisors, Inc. and is now registered with National Planning Corporation.

Pat Vitucci of Vitucci and Associates is best known for dispensing investment advice on San Francisco Bay Area radio stations. At least a dozen customer complaints, lawsuits and arbitration claims have been lodged against Vitucciall relating to the sale of variable annuities.The high fees, surrender charges and market risk associated with variable annuities make them a poor investment choice for many investors, particularly elderly investors or seniors. Last year FINRA experienced a 161% increase in arbitration claims involving variable annuities compared to the previous year. Concerns by regulators over the sale of variable annuities have led to increased oversight and regulation of the sale, exchange and replacement of variable annuities by broker-dealers.
