Among firms registered in MI, it ranks #2 of 39 on the same disclosure sort used on the state browse page.

How many FINRA disclosures does Comerica Securities have?

How big is Comerica Securities?
Comerica Securities operates 8 branch offices and is classified by FINRA as a small firm, registered in MI (Small firm). FINRA BrokerCheck publishes branch-office counts but not a firmwide registered-representative headcount, so PlainAdvisorCheck measures firm size by branch footprint.
Where can I verify Comerica Securities's disciplinary record?

What is a FINRA disclosure?
A FINRA disclosure is a reported event (regulatory, arbitration, or civil). Comerica Securities's 16 events mean reading the underlying BrokerCheck detail matters more than the raw count alone.
Should I avoid Comerica Securities because of its disclosures?
Not necessarily. Larger firms accumulate more disclosures simply because they operate more offices, so PlainAdvisorCheck grades each firm against same-size peers rather than on raw counts.
