Former stockbroker Jonathan Kur has been charged with dishonest use of his position and fraudulent activity involving more than $7 million.
Appearing before the Perth District Court, Kur pleaded guilty to three charges of fraud during the time he was an authorised representative of Hogan and Partners Stockbrokers.
At the time, he had been providing advice in relation to options trading and dealing in options trading for a number of clients based in Botswana.
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) alleged that between May 2005 and December 2008, he intentionally hid trading losses that he accumulated on three overseas client accounts.
Kur previously pleaded guilty in November 2011 in the Perth Magistrates' Court to one charge of dishonestly using his position as an employee of Hogan and Partners. In 2009, the regulator had permanently banned him from providing financial services.
Kur has been placed on continuing bail to reappear in the Perth District Court on 19 February for sentencing.
