SEC Action: Broadway Strategic Return Fund LP 

Securities Investigation: Broadway Strategic Return Fund LP  

According to an SEC litigation release, on September 1, 2022, the Securities and Exchange Commission reportedly announced that it has filed an action against two Managing Partners of Broadway Strategic Return Fund, LP, a fund that invests in securities related to theatrical productions, allegedly seeking an order directing them to comply with investigative subpoenas for testimony and documents.  

The SEC is reportedly investigating whether the two partners violated the federal securities laws by, among other things, allegedly making materially misleading statements to existing or prospective investors concerning the valuation of the Fund assets. The SEC is also investigating whether the partners allegedly falsely represented in due diligence questionnaires to investors that there have not been any investigations of the Fund or the Fund’s general partner, according to the news release.   

The SEC staff reportedly served both partners with investigative subpoenas requiring the production of certain documents and compelling their testimony. But despite numerous attempts to secure compliance with the subpoenas, the partners have allegedly refused to produce documents and reportedly failed to comply with the testimonial obligations.  

It is important to note that the SEC is continuing its fact-finding investigation and, to date, has reportedly not concluded that any individual or entity has violated the federal securities laws.   

According to a Reg D filing, Broadway Strategic Return Fund, LP reportedly raised capital from investors through a pooled investment fund in 2016. The total offering amount sold to investors was purportedly $81,600,000.
