COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Accelerated Wealth Advisors, LLC (AW) announced that it has reached a settlement to resolve an inquiry of the Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA), Division of Securities. The inquiry involved administrative matters related to a particular investment offering that took place between 2012-2014.
