FINRA Bars Dan Droeg

On March 3, 2022, FINRA issued a permanent bar about Droeg after he consented to sanctions without admitting or denying the allegations. The regulator said that Droeg, acting as a trustee for a trust, misappropriated over $878,000 from the trust. He allegedly used his authority to surrender a variable annuity held by the trust and transferred the funds to his personal accounts. While Droeg did distribute a portion to the beneficiaries, he reportedly used the remainder for personal expenses. As a result, Droeg was barred from working in any registered capacity with FINRA-member firms.
