The SEC and CFTC previously settled enforcement proceedings against an SEC-registered investment adviser and its CEO, co‑founder and majority owner in connection with alleged material misrepresentations about risk management procedures made to investors in a fund the manager operated, which lost more than $700 million. Concurrently with the settlements, the regulators also commenced parallel civil enforcement actions against the fund’s senior portfolio manager. A jury recently found the portfolio manager liable for non-scienter-based securities, investment adviser and commodities fraud. The SEC and CFTC are now asking the court to impose more than $13.6 million in monetary sanctions on the portfolio manager. This article reviews the trial verdict and the requests for sanctions.
