The short version

MICHAEL HOARE is listed as a director on 9 SEC Form D filings by 6 issuers between May 2012 and Sep 2014. Largest by amount reported sold: MARTIN CURRIE ABSOLUTE RETURN GLOBAL RESOURCES FUND LLC (Edinburgh, United Kingdom (as filed: X0) — pooled investment fund — 2012–2013; $30.5M reported sold to 1 investors), MARTIN CURRIE ABSOLUTE RETURN CHINA FUND LLC (Edinburgh, United Kingdom (as filed: X0) — pooled investment fund — 2012; $8.08M reported sold to 4 investors), MARTIN CURRIE ABSOLUTE RETURN JAPAN FUND LLC (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2012–2014; $1.85M reported sold to 3 investors), GLOBAL RESOURCES FUND, A SUB-FUND OF MARTIN CURRIE ABSOLUTE RETURN FUNDS LTD (Edinburgh, United Kingdom (as filed: X0) — pooled investment fund — 2012; $1.02M reported sold to 1 investors), CHINA FUND, A SUB-FUND OF MARTIN CURRIE ABSOLUTE RETURN FUNDS LTD (Edinburgh, United Kingdom (as filed: X0) — pooled investment fund — 2012; $382K reported sold to 1 investors) and 1 more (all listed below).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 6 separate companies raised money with this person listed as director, over about 2 years. Across those companies the filings report $41.8M sold in total.

Listed alongside ARTHUR JONES (9 shared filings), JAN ANKARCRONA (6 shared filings) and ELIZABETH DENMAN (3 shared filings).

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

The issuers belong to 2 sponsor groups: Martin Currie Absolute Return (4 issuers, $85.5M reported sold, 2012–2018) and Global Resources Fund A Sub (2 issuers, $1.02M reported sold, 2012–2015).

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) — 1 court case matching the name, 2 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 3 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 9 public filings for MICHAEL HOARE and found 4 differences, 3 worth asking the sponsor about: 4 Form Ds were filed more than 15 days after the first sale; MICHAEL HOARE is no longer listed on the Aug 26, 2013 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

4 differences found between the filings for MICHAEL HOARE — 3 worth asking about (compared 9 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Jan 1, 2011 – May 29, 2012

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

Form D filed 514 days after the first sale — MARTIN CURRIE ABSOLUTE RETURN CHINA FUND LLC · Form D filed 424 days after the first sale — MARTIN CURRIE ABSOLUTE RETURN JAPAN FUND LLC · Form D filed 505 days after the first sale — CHINA FUND, A SUB-FUND OF MARTIN CURRIE ABSOLUTE RETURN FUNDS LTD · Form D filed 505 days after the first sale — GLOBAL RESOURCES FUND, A SUB-FUND OF MARTIN CURRIE ABSOLUTE RETURN FUNDS LTD

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 23, 2012 – Aug 26, 2013

MICHAEL HOARE is no longer listed on the Aug 26, 2013 amendment — GLOBAL RESOURCES FUND, A SUB-FUND OF MARTIN CURRIE ABSOLUTE RETURN FUNDS LTD

MICHAEL HOARE appears on the May 23, 2012 Form D (director) but not on the Aug 26, 2013 Form D/A for the same offering.

What this means People leave, and the issuer must list only current officers, directors and promoters. It is still worth asking why this person left and who replaced them.

Note · Jan 1, 2011 – Sep 10, 2014

4 offerings have no amendment in the last 12 months and may still be open

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — MARTIN CURRIE ABSOLUTE RETURN JAPAN FUND LLC (latest filing Sep 10, 2014) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — MARTIN CURRIE ABSOLUTE RETURN GLOBAL RESOURCES FUND LLC (latest filing Aug 27, 2013) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — MARTIN CURRIE ABSOLUTE RETURN CHINA FUND LLC (latest filing May 29, 2012) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — CHINA FUND, A SUB-FUND OF MARTIN CURRIE ABSOLUTE RETURN FUNDS LTD (latest filing May 23, 2012)

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. Ask the sponsor which of these raises have closed.

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).
