The short version

Mark Mathias is listed as a director on 6 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Jan 2017 and Jan 2022: Steyn Capital Offshore Hedge Fund (Camana Bay, Cayman Islands (as filed: E9) — pooled investment fund — 2017–2018; $129.3M reported sold to 3 investors) and Steyn Capital Africa Fund (Mosta, Malta (as filed: O1) — pooled investment fund — 2019–2022; $71.1M reported sold to 3 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as director, over about 5 years. Across those companies the filings report $200.3M sold in total.

Listed alongside Andre Steyn (6 shared filings), Ian Hamilton (6 shared filings), Steyn Capital Management (Pty) Ltd. (6 shared filings, management entity), Jacques Andre Ellul Soler (4 shared filings) and Jamie Lee Kent (2 shared filings).

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

All 2 issuers belong to the sponsor group Steyn (5 issuers, $236.3M reported sold, 2017–2026).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Steyn has 5 companies on file and $236.3M 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) — 2 court cases matching the name, 8 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 10 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 6 public filings for Mark Mathias and found 3 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Form D filed 72 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

3 differences found between the filings for Mark Mathias — 1 worth asking about (compared 6 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Nov 1, 2016 – Jan 12, 2017

Form D filed 72 days after the first sale — Steyn Capital Offshore Hedge Fund

The filing says the first sale was Nov 1, 2016. The Form D was filed Jan 12, 2017 — 72 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 57 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Jan 1, 2020 – Jan 25, 2022

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Steyn Capital Africa Fund (latest filing Jan 25, 2022)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jan 25, 2022 (first sale Jan 1, 2020). It reports $71,088,704 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 1, 2016 – Feb 28, 2018

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Steyn Capital Offshore Hedge Fund (latest filing Feb 28, 2018)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Feb 28, 2018 (first sale Nov 1, 2016). It reports $129,250,000 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
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

None reported on 2 offerings — no sales commissions, finder's fees or proceeds to insiders

"Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.
