A Perth-based adviser previously investigated by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) for 33 counts of fraud, now faces an additional 12 charges.

Antonio Pisano appeared in the Perth Magistrates Court yesterday in relation to 45 charges of fraud.

The regulator alleges that while Pisano was a director and shareholder of Pisano Enterprises, trading as Pisano Financial Services, he defrauded various investors of $1.5 million.

The Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions is prosecuting the matter.
