SEC reportedly charges Atlanta RIA Joseph A. Meyer Jr. with fraud

Are you concerned about investments with Joseph A. Meyer Jr. in Atlanta, GA? If so, the securities attorneys at The White Law Group may be able to help you.

According to a press announcement on January 28,the Securities and Exchange Commission has reportedly charged registered investment adviser Joseph A. Meyer, Jr., of Atlanta, GA., and Statim Holdings with defrauding a private fund they managed and its investors.

From August 2009 through June 2018, Joseph A. Meyer, Jr., and Statim Holdings, Inc. reportedly offered and sold four classes of limited partnership interests in Arjun, L.P., a private fund.

According to the SEC’s complaint, Meyer allegedly promised investors that, in return for giving up substantial portions of their profits, investors in one class would be protected from losses, a feature he reportedly called “No Loss Protection,” and investors in two other classes would receive guaranteed fixed returns.

The complaint further alleges that Meyer told investors that the relinquished profits would be used to fund the No Loss Protection and guaranteed returns when Arjun had insufficient profits.

Meyer purportedly withdrew most of the relinquished profits and used the funds to pay his living expenses, according to the complaint.  The SEC said it is seeking permanent injunctive relief, disgorgement of ill-gotten gains with prejudgment interest, and civil penalties.
