Commission Charges Resident in the Atlanta Area and his Firm with Fraud in Connection with Prime Bank Scheme

On May 16, 2013, the Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) filed an emergency action in the federal district court in Atlanta, charging Robert Fowler (Fowler), a Duluth, Georgia resident, and his company, US Capital Funding Series II Trust 1 (US Capital), with violations of the federal securities laws for defrauding investors in a “prime bank” investment scheme.

The Commission’s complaint alleges that, since at least August 2012, Fowler and US Capital have raised at least $350,000 from investors by falsely promising high profits for investing in standby letters of credit or bank guarantees that would purportedly grant the investors loans, the proceeds of which would be invested for a significant profit. Fowler and US Capital instead misappropriated investor funds for personal and business uses.  Fowler was actively soliciting additional investors for his scheme, the complaint alleged. 

According to the complaint, Fowler targeted foreign-born small business owners with little or no experience in finance or investing.  In exchange for investors’ initial “down payment” for a stand-by letter of credit (SBLC) or bank guarantee to be issued by US Capital, Fowler offered to assist in the procurement of commercial loans to companies owned or operated by the investors, and to control the investment of at least a portion of the eventual (fictitious) loan proceeds, sometimes using affiliated “traders” and “trading platforms” in unspecified “instruments,” in order to derive substantial profits. Fowler and US Capital did not use the investor proceeds as represented; rather, shortly after US Capital’s bank accounts received investors’ funds, Fowler spent the funds at restaurants, grocery stores, gas stations, and clothing stores, and also withdrew thousands of dollars through ATM transactions.

In its complaint, the Commission alleges that US Capital’s website misrepresented that it has assets “valued in the Trillions,” and  had a “triple A” credit rating by Standard and Poor’s .  The complaint alleges that, in fact, US Capital had minimal assets and that the S&P rating was for an unaffiliated entity with the same name.  The Commission’s complaint further alleges that, in an effort to entice additional investors, Fowler misrepresented that the Commission had blessed US Capital’s offering. 

The complaint alleges that defendants violated the antifraud provisions of the federal securities laws, Section 17(a) of the Securities and of 1933, Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5 thereunder.  The complaint also alleges that defendants violated Section 26 of the Exchange Act, which makes it unlawful to represent to any purchaser or seller of a security that the Commission has “passed upon the merits of or given approval to any security or any transaction . . . therein.” 

Also today, the Honorable Steven C. Jones, United States District Judge for the Northern District of Georgia, granted the Commission’s request for emergency relief, issuing an order that temporarily restrained defendants from further securities law violation, froze defendants’ assets, prevented the destruction of documents and expedited discovery.  The Court also set a hearing date of June 14, 2013 for the Commission’s claim for a preliminary injunction.  The Commission’s complaint also seeks permanent injunctions, disgorgement of ill-gotten gains with prejudgment interest, and civil penalties.  Those claims will be adjudicated at a later date.  [SEC v. Robert Fowler and US Capital Funding II Series Trust 1, Inc. a/k/a US Capital Investments II (HK) Limited, Civil Action No. 1:13-cv-1656 (N.D. Ga.)](LR- 22702)

In the Matter of Noonan Capital Management, LLC and Timothy G. Noonan

The Commission announced the issuance of an Order Making Findings and Imposing Remedial Sanctions and a Cease-and-Desist Order Pursuant to Section 21C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Sections 203(e), 203(f) and 203(k) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, and Section 9(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 against Noonan Capital Management, LLC (Noonan Capital) and Timothy G. Noonan (Noonan) (jointly Respondents). 

The Order finds that Noonan Capital, a Georgia-registered investment adviser headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, and Noonan, Noonan Capital’s sole owner and officer, overcharged twenty-two clients a total of approximately $92,000 in excessive advisory fees between April 2009 and January 2011.  In addition, Noonan Capital and Noonan misrepresented its assets under management, failed to withdraw its registration with the Commission, failed to create or maintain proper books and records and failed to provide a brochure or Part 2 of its Form ADV to its clients.  

Based on the above, the Order: (1) orders Respondents to cease and desist from committing or causing violations of and any future violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and Sections 203A(a)(1)(A), 204(a), 206(1), 206(2), 207 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and Rules 204-1(a)(1), 204-2(a)(6), 204-3(a), and 204-3(b)(1) and (2) thereunder; (2) revokes Noonan Capital’s registration as an investment adviser; (3) bars Noonan from association with any broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer, municipal advisor, transfer agent or nationally recognized statistical rating organization; (4) bars Noonan from serving or acting as an employee, officer, director, member of an advisory board, investment advisor or depositor of, or principal underwriter for, a registered investment company or affiliated person of such investment adviser, depositor, or principal underwriter; (5) orders Noonan Capital and Noonan to pay, on a joint and several basis, disgorgement of $91,696 and prejudgment interest of $13,129.51 to the Commission, but payment of such amount except for $60,000 is waived based upon Noonan Capital and Noonan’s sworn representations of their financial  condition; and (6) orders Noonan to pay $60,000 in the following installments: (a) a first payment of $20,000 to be paid within ten business days of the entry of the Order, (b) a second payment of $20,000 to be paid within 360 days of the entry of the Order; and (3) a third and final payment of $20,000 to be paid within 720 days of the entry of the Order.

Respondents consented to the issuance of the Order without admitting or denying any of the findings, except admitting to the Commission’s jurisdiction.  (Rel. 34-69601; File No. 3-14955)
