Commission announcementsSecurities and Exchange Commission Suspends Trading in the Securities of Five Issuers For Failure to Make Required Periodic FilingsThe U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission announced the temporary suspension of trading in the securities of the following issuers, commencing at 9:30 a.m. EST on November 18, 2011 and terminating at 11:59 p.m. EST on December 2, 2011.
The Commission temporarily suspended trading in the securities of these five issuers due to a lack of current and accurate information about the companies because they have not filed periodic reports with the Commission in over two years. This order was entered pursuant to Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act). The Commission cautions brokers, dealers, shareholders and prospective purchasers that they should carefully consider the foregoing information along with all other currently available information and any information subsequently issued by these companies. Brokers and dealers should be alert to the fact that, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 15c2-11, at the termination of the trading suspensions, no quotation may be entered relating to the securities of the subject companies unless and until the broker or dealer has strictly complied with all of the provisions of the rule. If any broker or dealer is uncertain as to what is required by the rule, it should refrain from entering quotations relating to the securities of these companies that have been subject to a trading suspension until such time as it has familiarized itself with the rule and is certain that all of its provisions have been met. Any broker or dealer with questions regarding the rule should contact the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in Washington, DC at (202) 551-5720. If any broker or dealer enters any quotation which is in violation of the rule, the Commission will consider the need for prompt enforcement action. If any broker, dealer or other person has any information which may relate to this matter, they should immediately communicate it to the Delinquent Filings Branch of the Division of Enforcement at (202) 551-5466, or by e-mail at DelinquentFilings@sec.gov. (Rel. 34-65784) SEC Charges Perpetrator of Washington-Area Ponzi SchemeThe Securities and Exchange Commission today charged a Bethesda, Md. man and several family members and friends with conducting a multi-million dollar Ponzi scheme targeting investors in the Washington D.C. metropolitan area. The SEC alleges that Garfield M. Taylor lured primarily middle-class residents in his community with little to no investing experience to invest in promissory notes issued by his two companies that engaged in purportedly low-risk options trading. Taylor urged investors to refinance their homes and use any available means to invest, including their personal savings and retirement funds. He promised returns as high as 20 percent per year and falsely assured investors that their investments would be protected by a “reserve account” or that he would employ a “covered call” trading strategy that would not touch the principal amount of their investment. According to the SEC’s complaint filed in federal court in Washington D.C., Taylor and his companies instead engaged in very high-risk, speculative options trading and suffered massive losses. Taylor relied upon money from new investors to pay returns to earlier investors in typical Ponzi scheme fashion. He also siphoned off $5 million in investor funds to pay family and friends and for other personal uses, including $73,000 to the private school his children attended. “Garfield Taylor and his partners in the scheme touted themselves as seasoned and trustworthy financial professionals offering a conservative but lucrative investment opportunity. In reality, they were gambling away investor assets in extremely risky trades and operating a classic Ponzi scheme,” said Stephen L. Cohen, Associate Director of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement. The SEC alleges that the Ponzi scheme defrauded more than $27 million from approximately 130 investors from 2005 to 2010. The scheme ultimately collapsed in the fall of 2010 when the companies’ accounts were depleted by the trading losses and interest payments to investors. The SEC’s complaint charged Taylor’s companies Garfield Taylor Inc. and Gibraltar Asset Management Group LLC – which were not registered with the SEC – as well as five collaborators in Taylor’s scheme:
According to the SEC’s complaint, Garfield Taylor and the others jointly prepared and finalized a Gibraltar PowerPoint presentation for prospective investors that was riddled with false and misleading statements. They misrepresented the nature of the company’s options trading strategy, the anticipated rate of return, the protections offered by its outside accountant, and the overall level of risk involved in an investment with Gibraltar. They pitched the PowerPoint presentation to potential institutional investors and charitable organizations, including a Washington D.C.-based children’s charity and a Baptist church in Maryland. Garfield Taylor went so far as to provide the Baptist church with a fake “letter of recommendation” from Charles Schwab as he pitched the investment opportunity. The SEC alleges that in order to maintain a steady flow of new investor money, Garfield Taylor induced current investors and others including King and Mitchell to solicit and refer new investors to him in exchange for commission payments based on the amounts invested. Garfield Taylor, who was not a licensed securities broker, persuaded several individuals to give him online access to their personal brokerage accounts so he could place trades and give them a promised share of any profits generated. The SEC’s complaint charges each of the Taylors, Dalley, King, Garfield Taylor Inc. and Gibraltar Asset Management Group with violating the anti-fraud provisions of federal securities laws. The SEC charged Garfield Taylor, King, and Mitchell with violating the broker-dealer registration requirements, and Garfield Taylor, Garfield Taylor Inc. and Gibraltar Asset Management Group with violating the offering registration requirements of the federal securities laws. The SEC seeks a judgment permanently enjoining the defendants from future violations of the relevant provisions of the federal securities laws and ordering them to pay penalties and disgorgement with prejudgment interest. The SEC also named three companies belonging to Randolph Taylor, Dalley, King, and Mitchell as relief defendants for the purposes of seeking disgorgement with prejudgment interest of investor funds in their possession. The SEC’s investigation was conducted by Sarah Allgeier, Richard Johnston, Robert Dodge, and Donato Furlano. The SEC’s litigation will be led by Richard Hong.

Enforcement proceedingsCommission Decision as to Glenn M. Barikmo Declared FinalThe Commission has barred Glenn M. Barikmo, a former registered representative, from associating with a broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer, transfer agent, and NRSRO. Administrative proceedings were instituted based on the June 30, 2011 district court order permanently enjoining Barikmo, by default, from violating Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and from aiding and abetting any violations of Sections 206(1), 206(2), and 206(4) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (Advisers Act) and Rule 206(4)-8 thereunder. SEC v. Mittasch, 8:10-cv-02859-JDW-MAP (M.D. CA June 30, 2011). The court found that from approximately April 2008 through April 2010, Barikmo, in connection with the purchase or sale of securities, knowingly, willfully, or recklessly, employed devices, schemes, or artifices to defraud; made material untrue statements and omissions; or engaged in acts, practices, and courses of business which operated as a fraud upon the purchasers of such securities. The law judge found that Barikmo has offered no assurances against future violations; and, he has not acknowledged the wrongful nature of his conduct. The law judge further noted that a permanent bar will protect the investing public from future harm. (Rel. 34-65782; IA-3317; File No. 3-14474) In the Matter of Dr. Joseph F. Skowron III, RespondentOn November 17, 2011, the Commission issued an Order Instituting Administrative Proceedings Pursuant to Section 15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Section 203(f) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, Making Findings, and Imposing Remedial Sanctions (Order) against Dr. Joseph F. Skowron III. The Order finds that Skowron was a managing director of Morgan Stanley and a co-portfolio manager of six healthcare related hedge funds. On November 16, 2011, 2011, a final judgment was entered by consent against Skowron, permanently enjoining him from future violations of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. The Commission’s complaint alleged that Skowron ordered the sale of approximately six million shares of Human Genome Sciences Inc. (HGSI) prior to a negative public announcement, based on tips he received from Dr. Yves Benhamou, a medical researcher overseeing a clinical drug trial for HGSI. By selling in advance of the negative announcement, the hedge funds avoided losses of approximately $30 million. On August 15, 2011, Skowron pled guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit securities fraud and obstruct justice, which carries, among other things, a maximum sentence of five years’ imprisonment. [SEC v. Dr. Joseph F. “Chip” Skowron III, et al., Civil Action No. 10-CV-8266 (S.D.N.Y.) (LR-21928); United States v. Joseph F. Skowron III, Case No. 11-CR-699 (S.D.N.Y.)] Based on the above, the Order bars Dr. Skowron from association with any broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer, municipal advisor, transfer agent, or nationally recognized statistical rating organization; and from participating in any offering of a penny stock, including: acting as a promoter, finder, consultant, agent or other person who engages in activities with a broker, dealer or issuer for purposes of the issuance or trading in any penny stock, or inducing or attempting to induce the purchase or sale of any penny stock. (Rel. 34-65783; IA-3318; File No. 3-14633) Commission Orders Hearings on Registration Suspension or Revocation Against Five Companies for Failure to Make Required Periodic FilingsIn conjunction with this trading suspension, the Commission today also instituted public administrative proceedings to determine whether to revoke or suspend for a period not exceeding twelve months the registration of each class of the securities of five companies for failure to make required periodic filings with the Commission:
In this Order, the Division of Enforcement (Division) alleges that the five issuers are delinquent in their required periodic filings with the Commission. In this proceeding, instituted pursuant to Exchange Act Section 12(j), a hearing will be scheduled before an Administrative Law Judge. At the hearing, the judge will hear evidence from the Division and the Respondents to determine whether the allegations of the Division contained in the Order, which the Division alleges constitute failures to comply with Exchange Act Section 13(a) and Rules 13a-1 and 13a-13 thereunder, are true. The judge in the proceeding will then determine whether the registrations pursuant to Exchange Act Section 12 of each class of the securities of these Respondents should be revoked or suspended for a period not exceeding twelve months. The Commission ordered that the Administrative Law Judge in this proceeding issue an initial decision not later than 120 days from the date of service of the order instituting proceedings. (Rel. 34-65785; File No. 3-14634) Investment company act releasesRiverPark Advisors, LLC, et al.An order has been issued on an application filed by RiverPark Advisors, LLC, et al.
