The short version

John Ackerly is listed as a director on 31 SEC Form D filings by 9 issuers between Mar 2015 and Apr 2026. Largest by amount reported sold: Four Points Multi-Strategy Fund, Inc. (Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands (as filed: E9) — pooled investment fund — 2020–2026; $1.07B reported sold to 32 investors), Incline Global Offshore Ltd (Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands (as filed: E9) — pooled investment fund — 2017–2026; $377.7M reported sold to 29 investors), Incline Global ELS Ltd.

(Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands (as filed: E9) — pooled investment fund — 2020–2022; $34.6M reported sold to 4 investors) and 4 more (all listed below).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 9 separate companies raised money with this person listed as director, over about 11 years. Across those companies the filings report $1.68B sold in total.

Listed alongside Martin Laidlaw (13 shared filings), Anthony Chaves (8 shared filings), Dilation Capital Management LP (8 shared filings, management entity), Greg Bennett (8 shared filings), Mark R. Shenkman (7 shared filings) and 15 others.

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

The issuers belong to 4 sponsor groups: Dilation (2 issuers, $31.8M reported sold, 2020–2026), Incline (6 issuers, $760M reported sold, 2012–2026), Shenkman (58 issuers, $13.54B reported sold, 2009–2026) and Otter Rock (2 issuers, $7.06M reported sold, 2026).

What this means This person is listed across more than one sponsor team; each group page shows that team's full track record.

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 31 public filings for John Ackerly and found 14 differences, 6 worth asking the sponsor about: Amount sold went down between filings; Form D filed 1,394 days after the first sale; 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

14 differences found between the filings for John Ackerly — 6 worth asking about (compared 31 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Nov 4, 2021 – Nov 4, 2022

Amount sold went down between filings — Dilation Offshore Fund, Ltd.

The Nov 4, 2021 filing says $34,642,000 sold; the Nov 4, 2022 Form D/A says $12,500,000 sold — $22,142,000 less.

What this means Amounts sold normally only go up as a raise continues. A drop can mean investors were refunded, a figure was corrected, or an earlier number was wrong. Ask the sponsor which it was.

The filing says the first sale was May 1, 2014. The Form D was filed Feb 23, 2018 — 1,394 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 1,379 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.

The latest filing for this offering is dated Nov 4, 2022 (first sale Nov 1, 2020). It reports $12,500,000 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.

Same name, different state: "John M. Ackerly" (DC) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is E9. A separate record, "John M. Ackerly" with address state DC, is listed on 3 filings — most recently by Virtru Corp (Aug 22, 2016). Both records have filings in the same period (Mar 18, 2015 to Aug 22, 2016).

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.

Formed in 2017 per the latest filing, but activity is dated 2014 — Incline Global ELS Ltd.

The issuer's latest filing says it was formed in 2017. The Feb 23, 2018 filing says the first sale was May 1, 2014 — 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.

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).

Deals 9
