The short version

Avant, Inc. is a management entity listed as an executive officer on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Nov 2015: Avant Capital Partnership I, L.P. (Chicago, IL — pooled investment fund — 2015; $42.3M reported sold to 47 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Nov 2015. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment — it is a notice, not an approval.

Listed alongside Adam Hughes (1 shared filing), Albert Goldstein (1 shared filing), Avant Capital Advisors I, LLC (1 shared filing, management entity), James Paris (1 shared filing), John Sun (1 shared filing) and 3 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Avant,. Each name links to their own page.

The issuer belongs to the sponsor group Avant (6 issuers, $589.4M reported sold, 2009–2022).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Avant has 6 companies on file and $589.4M reported sold in total — the group page shows the whole track record in one place.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 36 court cases matching the name, 19 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 55 records came back, including 5 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.

We compared 1 public filing for Avant, Inc. and found 1 difference: No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open.

What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.

4. Differences between public sources

Comparisons cover issuers and sponsor groups — see the issuer pages under Deals

1 difference found between the filings for Avant, Inc. (compared 1 filing on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Oct 20, 2015 – Nov 3, 2015

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Avant Capital Partnership I, L.P. (latest filing Nov 3, 2015)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Nov 3, 2015 (first sale Oct 20, 2015). It reports $42,260,000 sold of $75,000,000 offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

What is compared

What is compared: every Form D and D/A we hold for this subject, side by side — filing dates vs. first-sale dates (the 15-day rule), amendment timing on open offerings (the yearly-amendment expectation), amounts sold, investor counts, offering amounts and minimums across amendments, industry and size bands, addresses, how each person's name and role is written, paid sellers' CRD numbers, and (for groups) where the member companies were formed and sit. Everything is as filed by the issuer; the SEC does not check it. Differences are common and usually have ordinary explanations — we show both values, the dates, and the source so you can ask. As of Oct 24, 2026.

How this is counted

Counts come from Form D Items 12–15 on the filings in our index (latest filing per offering; one offering = one SEC file number; an amendment updates its offering rather than adding one). "To insiders" = gross proceeds used for payments to executive officers, directors or promoters. "—" = not reported on that filing. Amounts marked (est.) were reported as estimates. "Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.

Counted across every filing this entity is listed on (latest filing per offering, per issuer).
