CJS Technology Select Fund Securities Investigation

CJS Technology Select Fund LLC – Investigating Potential Lawsuits

Are you concerned about your investment in CJS Technology Select Fund LLC? If so, the securities attorneys at The White Law Group may be able to help you by filing a FINRA Dispute Resolution claim against the brokerage firm that sold you the investment.

CJS Technology Select Fund, sponsored by CJS Financial Corp., invests in “proven, late-stage, pre-IPO companies,” according to its website. The fund is “devoted to private investments in the largest technology companies in Silicon Valley.” The fund reportedly invests in companies before they IPO (or get acquired) and the Shares are reportedly purchased from pre-existing shareholders.

The company filed a Form D (private placement) notice of exempt offering of securities in 2016 to raise capital from investors. The total offering amount was $50,000,000.00. The total amount purportedly sold was $8,000,000 with estimated sales commissions of $800,000, according to SEC filings.

Is a Reg D Private Placement Investment Suitable for you?

The White Law Group is investigating the liability that FINRA registered brokerage firms may have for improperly selling alternative investment products to investors.

Private placements are a means for smaller companies to raise capital through the sale of equity or debt securities without having to register their securities with the SEC. These investments are often riskier and more complicated than traditional investments, and are only suitable for high net worth, sophisticated investors.

Broker dealers are required to perform adequate due diligence on any investment they recommend. They must ensure that all recommendations are suitable for the investor. Recommendations should be in line with the investor’s age, risk tolerance, net worth, and investment experience.

Despite the risks of investing in this type of alternative investments, brokerage firms continue to push this type of investment because of the high commissions associated with their sale and creation.
