A recent investor complaint against Westlake Village, California financial advisor David Glienke (CRD# 5502866) alleges that his investment advice resulted in six-figure damages.

ClearCoast Wealth Management’s website includes a profile of Mr. Glienke that describes him as the firm’s president. “He is passionate about seeking new ways to enhance the services he and his associates are able to offer clients,” it states. “While his passion for investing dates back to high school, David has been a professional investment manager since 2008.”

Based in Westlake Village, California, he has been a broker and an investment advisor with Western International Securities since 2008 and 2010, respectively, doing business as ClearCoast Wealth Management.
