The short version
Griffin is a sponsor group of 14 issuers that PartnerFacts links to one sponsor (shared people, shared management entity, same business address, similar issuer names; automatic match from the filings), filing 25 Form D filings between Dec 2015 and Nov 2023.
What this means One team, 14 deal companies, about 8 years of track record in SEC filings. We link the companies because the same people or address appear on their forms — tap "Request a correction" if that is wrong.
Combined reported sold: $102M to 260 investors (latest filing per issuer). Industries as reported: Pooled Investment Fund (14). Issuers are based in IL (14).
What this means $102M raised across the group, about $392K per investor. Amounts come from each company's latest Form D; they are what the sponsor reported, not audited figures.
Principal people: Michael Griffin (14 issuers, executive officer and director), Griffin Capital MGT, LLC (13 issuers, executive officer and director, entity), Griffin Asset Management LLC (10 issuers, executive officer and director, entity), Chadwick Meyer (4 issuers, executive officer), Simon Clark (4 issuers, executive officer) and 7 more.
What this means The person on the most companies is usually the one running the show; their page lists every deal.
Activity: 0 new offerings in the last 12 months; latest filing Nov 21, 2023.
What this means No new raise filed in the past year.
Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA), property records (NYC, FL, IL and TX counties) — 18 court cases matching the name, 7 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below. Not yet searched: SEC enforcement releases (search queued; results are added automatically).
What this means 25 records came back, including 3 court cases still open — open cases can take years and cost money. Each one is listed below with a link to the original document and a line saying why it matched. A name match is not proof it is the same person or company — read the why line and the document. Being sued or named in a release is an accusation, not a finding.
