FINRA barred securities broker Johnathon Sawaged [CRD: 7061837, Poughkeepsie, New York], according to publicly available information on FINRA BrokerCheck. Notably, Johnathon Sawaged worked for B. Riley Wealth Management from July 22, 2022 to September 4, 2024, and prior to that, at National Securities Corporation from September 18, 2019 to July 22, 2022. Read the following sections to learn more about the disclosures reported against Sawaged.
Evidently, on May 14, 2025, FINRA issued Case: 2024083242501 sanctioning Johnathon Sawaged. Specifically, Sawaged was barred from association with any FINRA member in all capacities. FINRA alleged that Sawaged violated FINRA Rules 8210 and 2010 linked to an investigation into client payments. On September 3, 2024, B. Riley Wealth Management terminated the broker’s registration for alleged mismanagement of client payments when he worked for a tax services company.
According to FINRA, the regulatory action stemmed from Sawaged’s failure to cooperate with an investigation. Rule 8210 requires brokers to provide testimony, documents, or information related to an inquiry. In this instance, FINRA reportedly made requests for information that Sawaged did not comply with.
Sawaged’s lack of response prevented FINRA from completing its investigation into his activities while registered with B. Riley Wealth Management. Consequently, FINRA determined that barring him from the industry was an appropriate sanction under its enforcement guidelines.
