The short version

Dave C.E Williams is listed as a director on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Jan 2013: Sustainability Investment Fund 2012, LP (Portland, OR — pooled investment fund — 2013).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Jan 2013. 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 John Brock Metcalf (1 shared filing).

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

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FINRA, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — 1 court case matching the name, 12 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 13 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 1 public filing for Dave C.E Williams and found 2 differences: Dave C.E Williams appears on 1 deal that stopped filing before reaching its target; Same name, different state: "Dave Williams" (GA) is a separate record.

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.

Note · Jun 1, 2010

Same name, different state: "Dave Williams" (GA) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is OR. A separate record, "Dave Williams" with address state GA, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by Kudzu Interactive, Inc. (Jun 1, 2010). The two records do not overlap in time: this page has one filing dated Jan 31, 2013; the other has one filing dated Jun 1, 2010.

What this means Could be the same person who moved, or two people with the same name. 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.

5. Money to insiders

0 of 1 offering report sales commissions; 0 report finder's fees; 1 reports proceeds to related persons totalling $1,000. (includes amounts the issuer reported as estimates)

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).
