The short version

Christopher Ray is listed as an executive officer on 14 SEC Form D filings by 7 issuers between Feb 2011 and Jun 2012. Largest by amount reported sold: Mercer Active Long Corporate Investment Portfolio, a series of Mercer Group Trust (Boston, MA — pooled investment fund — 2011–2012; $17.96B reported sold to 216 investors), Mercer Redstone Balanced Fund, a series of Mercer Group Trust (Norwood, MA — pooled investment fund — 2011–2012; $1.41B reported sold to 1 investors), Mercer Sunoco Investment Portfolio, a series of Mercer Group Trust (Norwood, MA — pooled investment fund — 2011–2012; $1.25B reported sold to 1 investors), Mercer Phoenix Investment Portfolio, a series of Mercer Group Trust (Norwood, MA — pooled investment fund — 2012; $500.5M reported sold to 1 investors), Mercer Redstone Total Return Fund, a series of Mercer Group Trust (Norwood, MA — pooled investment fund — 2011–2012; $349.6M reported sold to 2 investors) and 2 more (all listed below).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 7 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer. Across those companies the filings report $21.97B sold in total.

Listed alongside Manny Weiss (14 shared filings), Wil Berglund (14 shared filings), Mercer Investment Management, Inc. (7 shared filings, management entity), Tom Murphy (7 shared filings), Richard Joseph (5 shared filings) and 1 others.

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

All 7 issuers belong to the sponsor group Cais (202 issuers, $40.6B reported sold, 2009–2026).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Cais has 202 companies on file and $40.6B 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) — none found.

What this means Nothing turned up where we looked (3 sources). That does not prove there is nothing — it means none was found in those sources on that date.

We compared 14 public filings for Christopher Ray and found 5 differences, 2 worth asking the sponsor about: 4 Form Ds were filed more than 15 days after the first sale; 7 people are no longer listed on a later amendment; 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.

4. Differences between public sources

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

5 differences found between the filings for Christopher Ray — 2 worth asking about (compared 14 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Mar 4, 2010 – Oct 17, 2011

4 Form Ds were filed more than 15 days after the first sale

Form D filed 379 days after the first sale — Mercer Redstone Large Cap Growth Fund, a series of Mercer Group Trust · Form D filed 24 days after the first sale — Mercer Redstone Mid Cap Growth Fund, a Series of Mercer Group Trust · Form D filed 18 days after the first sale — Mercer Redstone Mid Cap Growth Fund, a Series of Mercer Group Trust · Form D filed 16 days after the first sale — Mercer Active Long Corporate Investment Portfolio, a series of Mercer Group Trust

What this means Late notices are common and carry no penalty by themselves. A pattern of late paperwork is worth asking the sponsor about.

Sources
Worth asking · May 21, 2012 – May 22, 2013

7 people are no longer listed on a later amendment

Christopher Ray is no longer listed on the May 22, 2013 amendment — Mercer Redstone Balanced Fund, a series of Mercer Group Trust · Christopher Ray is no longer listed on the May 22, 2013 amendment — Mercer Phoenix Investment Portfolio, a series of Mercer Group Trust · Christopher Ray is no longer listed on the May 22, 2013 amendment — Mercer Active Long Corporate Investment Portfolio, a series of Mercer Group Trust · Christopher Ray is no longer listed on the May 22, 2013 amendment — Mercer Redstone Total Return Fund, a series of Mercer Group Trust · Christopher Ray is no longer listed on the May 22, 2013 amendment — Mercer Redstone Large Cap Growth Fund, a series of Mercer Group Trust · and 2 more

What this means People leave; the issuer lists only current officers, directors and promoters. Ask why and who replaced them.

Sources
Note · Sep 23, 2011 – Oct 11, 2011

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Mercer Redstone Mid Cap Growth Fund, a Series of Mercer Group Trust (latest filing Oct 11, 2011)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Oct 11, 2011 (first sale Sep 23, 2011). It reports $36,876,000 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.

Sources
Note · Nov 17, 2009 – Apr 27, 2018

Same name, different state: "Christopher D. Ray" (TX or MA) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is MA. A separate record, "Christopher D. Ray" with address state TX or MA, is listed on 8 filings — most recently by X-Biotix Therapeutics, Inc. (Nov 25, 2019). Both records have filings in the same period (Feb 10, 2011 to Jun 13, 2012).

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.

Sources
Note · Mar 18, 2011

Formed in 2011 per the latest filing, but activity is dated 2010 — Mercer Redstone Large Cap Growth Fund, a series of Mercer Group Trust

The issuer's latest filing says it was formed in 2011. The Mar 18, 2011 filing says the first sale was Mar 4, 2010 — before that year.

What this means A company cannot sell before it exists, so one of the two dates is likely a typo on the form. Ask the sponsor for the formation document.

Sources
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.

5. Money to insiders

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).
