Christian Gonzalez

(CRD #5550494, Fairfield, New Jersey)

January 29, 2026 – An AWC was issued in which Christian Gonzalez was assessed a deferred fine of $5,000 and suspended from association with any FINRA member in all capacities for 12 months. Without admitting or denying the findings, Gonzalez consented to the sanctions and to the entry of findings that he failed to observe high standards of commercial honor and just and equitable principles of trade by making cash deposits. The findings stated that Gonzalez received Bank Secrecy Act training provided to him by his member firm that financial institutions are required to report cash transactions over $10,000 and that structuring was prohibited under the BSA. Nevertheless, Gonzalez made cash deposits in a firm account totaling $58,970. Each individual deposit was in an amount below $10,000, which evaded federal reporting requirements that would have caused the firm to file Currency Transaction Reports (CTRs). The suspension is in effect from February 2, 2026, through February 1, 2027.
