The short version

Bruce Cooper is listed as an executive officer on 7 SEC Form D filings by 4 issuers between Nov 2022 and Nov 2023: Aeon Global Choice Fund, LLC (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2022; $611.9M reported sold to 5 investors), AEON GLOBAL ABSOLUTE RETURN FUND LLC (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2022–2023; $132.4M reported sold to 32 investors), Aeon Global Equity Shareholder Yield Fund, LLC (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2022–2023; $61.5M reported sold to 8 investors) and Aeon U.S. SMID Cap Value Fund, LLC (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2022–2023; $22.4M reported sold to 5 investors).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 4 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer. Across those companies the filings report $828.1M sold in total.

Listed alongside Michael Welhoelter (7 shared filings), Epoch Investment Partners, Inc. (6 shared filings, management entity), William W. Priest (5 shared filings) and W. Epoch Investment Partners, Inc. (1 shared filing, management entity).

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

All 4 issuers belong to the sponsor group Aeon (7 issuers, $259.1M reported sold, 2009–2025).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Aeon has 7 companies on file and $259.1M 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 (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, DE, FINRA, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — 41 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 41 records came back. 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 7 public filings for Bruce Cooper and found 11 differences, 6 worth asking the sponsor about: 6 offerings reported less sold on a later filing than an earlier one; 5 offerings reported fewer investors on a later filing; and more below.

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.

Form D filed 531 days after the first sale — Aeon U.S. SMID Cap Value Fund, LLC

The filing says the first sale was Jun 2, 2021. The Form D was filed Nov 15, 2022 — 531 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 516 days past that.

What this means The notice went in months after money was taken in. Late notices are common and carry no penalty by themselves, but it is fair to ask the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Jun 2, 2021 – Nov 30, 2023

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Aeon U.S. SMID Cap Value Fund, LLC (latest filing Nov 30, 2023)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Nov 30, 2023 (first sale Jun 2, 2021). It reports $21,198,162 sold of an indefinite amount 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.

Bruce Cooper appears on the Nov 30, 2023 Form D/A (executive officer) but not on the Jan 14, 2025 Form D/A for the same offering.

What this means People leave, and the issuer must list only current officers, directors and promoters. It is still worth asking why this person left and who replaced them.

"Over $100,000,000" (Sep 1, 2010); then "Decline to Disclose" (Aug 13, 2014).

What this means This is the size band the issuer picks for itself on the form. A change can mean the business grew or shrank — or that it chose not to say. Ask for current numbers.

Note · Nov 13, 2009 – May 4, 2023

Same name, different state: "Bruce Cooper" (NJ) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is NY. A separate record, "Bruce Cooper" with address state NJ, is listed on 2 filings — most recently by Avotres Inc. (May 4, 2023). Both records have filings in the same period (Nov 15, 2022 to May 4, 2023).

What this means Two records with one name were active at the same time. That can be one person listing different company addresses, or two different people. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

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 person is listed on (latest filing per offering, per issuer).

A shared address can mean the same team, a shared office building or a registered agent. It is a lead, not a conclusion.

Registrations and other filings

Business registration (state registry / Secretary of State)

Individuals are not matched to business registrations — registries list companies, and a name alone is not enough to tie a person to one. Officers and managers appear by name inside each matched company's record on the issuer pages. Registries searched: AL (Alabama Secretary of State — Business Entity Records (arc-sos.state.al.us), searched by issuer name, data as of Oct 24, 2026); CO (Colorado Secretary of State — Business Entities in Colorado (data.colorado.gov), data as of Oct 23, 2026); CT (Connecticut Secretary of the State — Business Registry (data.ct.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026); FL (Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations — quarterly corporate data file (Sunbiz), data as of Oct 7, 2026); KY (Kentucky Secretary of State — Business Entity Search (sosbes.sos.ky.gov), searched by issuer name, data as of Oct 24, 2026); NY (New York Department of State — Corporations and Other Entities (data.ny.gov: All Filings + Active Corporations), data as of Oct 20, 2026); OR (Oregon Secretary of State — Active Businesses, All (data.oregon.gov), data as of Oct 20, 2026); PA (Pennsylvania Department of State — Registered Businesses, Current (data.pa.gov), data as of Oct 6, 2026); TX (Texas Comptroller — Active Franchise Taxpayers incl.

Registries of other states have not been searched: many publish no bulk file and require a CAPTCHA or bot challenge on their search page, which we do not bypass (Delaware, for example, offers no public bulk file).

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

A person is never an adviser firm. 4 of the 4 issuers this person is listed on match a Form ADV adviser (searched 24,962 advisers as of Oct 2, 2026): AEON GLOBAL ABSOLUTE RETURN FUND LLC, Aeon Global Equity Shareholder Yield Fund, LLC, Aeon U.S. SMID Cap Value Fund, LLC, Aeon Global Choice Fund, LLC.
