Finra bars two no-show brokers
Shlomo Strugano and John Chrysadakis allegedly falsified documents
JAN 07, 2020

In separate cases, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority Inc. has barred Shlomo Strugano and John Chrysadakis for failing to take part in investigations looking into their conduct.

Mr. Strugano, who worked for 12 firms from 1999 to 2015, when he resigned from First Allied in Reseda, Calif., was being investigated by that firm for having allegedly forged or falsified customer signatures and initials on account and transaction documents. He is not currently an employee of a securities firm.

Mr. Chrysadakis resigned from Northwestern Mutual Investment Services in March after denying allegations of fraudulent activity, including alleged forgery of nonvariable insurance forms and alleged submission of unauthorized nonvariable policy applications, as well as undisclosed financial liens and judgments. He is no longer employed in the securities industry.
