Goodman & Nekvasil P.A, May Recover Investor Losses – James Michael Sarkauskas Sr. (James Sarkauskas) Barred from the Securities Industry by the SEC

James Sarkauskas was licensed with Western International Securities, Inc. from 2006 to 2011. James Sarkauskas was also the founder, president and chief compliance officer of Sarkauskas and Associates, Inc. James Sarkauskas was disgorged for $331,433.98, fined $118,403.22, and barred from association with any broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer, municipal advisor, transfer agent, participating in any offering of penny stock, and association with any nationally recognized statistical rating organization by the SEC on September 13, 2013.

The SEC reported to FINRA that the Commission found that James Sarkauskas, the Principal of an investment adviser, violated Sections 206(1) and (2) of the Advisers Act when James Sarkauskas purchased unit investment trust (UIT) units bearing transactional sales charges in their clients’ accounts without disclosing that identical UIT Units sold at net asset value (NAV) with no transactional sales charges (“no-load”) were available for purchase and that the purchases of the units bearing transactional sales charges substantially increased the investment adviser’s compensation, thereby creating a conflict of interest. The SEC reported to FINRA that the adviser, through James Sarkauskas, collected $331,433.98 in such sales charges in addition to the adviser’s asset management fees.
