The short version

Howard Fields is listed as a director on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Mar 2012: Capital Dynamics US Solar Energy, L.P. (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2012; $25M reported sold to 1 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Mar 2012. 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 Andrew Beaton (1 shared filing), Capital Dynamics (US) GP II, L.P. (1 shared filing, management entity), Capital Dynamics, Inc. (1 shared filing, management entity), Cynthia Duda (1 shared filing), David Woolford (1 shared filing) and 4 others.

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

The issuer belongs to the sponsor group Capital Dynamics (46 issuers, $3.02B reported sold, 2010–2024).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Capital Dynamics has 46 companies on file and $3.02B 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, 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) — 14 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 14 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 Howard Fields and found 4 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Bankruptcy case: Howard M. Fields; 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

4 differences found between the filings for Howard Fields — 1 worth asking about (compared 1 filing on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Aug 26, 1997 – Feb 18, 1998

Bankruptcy case: Howard M. Fields — filed Aug 26, 1997

United States Bankruptcy Court, N.D. New York docket "Howard M. Fields" filed Aug 26, 1997, closed Feb 18, 1998. Howard Fields is listed as Debtor ("Howard M. Fields"). Our match estimate: 44%.

What this means A bankruptcy filing was found. Many are old or personal and have nothing to do with the deal — but ask what it was and when it closed.

Howard Fields appears on 1 deal that stopped filing before reaching its target

Capital Dynamics US Solar Energy, L.P. (last filing Mar 21, 2012; $25,000,000 sold of $300,000,000). Each has no filing in more than two years and reported under half its target sold.

What this means An issuer whose last filing is more than two years old and reported under half its target sold. The raise may have closed early or quietly stopped. Ask what happened to each.

Note · Mar 20, 2012 – Mar 21, 2012

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Capital Dynamics US Solar Energy, L.P. (latest filing Mar 21, 2012)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Mar 21, 2012 (first sale Mar 20, 2012). It reports $25,000,000 sold of $300,000,000 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.

Same name, different state: "Howard M. Fields" (IL) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is NY. A separate record, "Howard M. Fields" with address state IL, is listed on 6 filings — most recently by Inland Retail Property Fund, LP (Dec 31, 2020). The two records do not overlap in time: this page has one filing dated Mar 21, 2012; the other runs Jan 10, 2017 to Dec 31, 2020.

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.

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.
