The short version

Reto Ringer is listed as a director on 4 SEC Form D filings by 4 issuers between Jun 2026 and Aug 2026: Emerald Global Water Fund II, a sub-fund of Emerald Innovation Fund ILP (Dublin, Ireland (as filed: L2) — pooled investment fund — 2026; $45M reported sold to 4 investors), Emerald Global Energy Transformation Fund (Ireland), a sub-fund of Emerald Innovation Fund ILP (Dublin 1, Ireland (as filed: L2) — pooled investment fund — 2026; $15M reported sold to 2 investors), Emerald Sustainable Packaging Innovation Fund, a sub-fund of Emerald Innovation Fund ILP (Dublin 1, Ireland (as filed: L2) — pooled investment fund — 2026; $10M reported sold to 2 investors) and Emerald Industrial Innovation Fund (Ireland), a sub-fund of Emerald Innovation Fund ILP (Dublin 1, Ireland (as filed: L2) — pooled investment fund — 2026; $10M reported sold to 2 investors).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 4 separate companies raised money with this person listed as director. Across those companies the filings report $80M sold in total.

Listed alongside Alison Manley (4 shared filings), Daragh Roche (4 shared filings), Emerald Innovation Fund Partners IV Limited (4 shared filings, management entity), Emerald Technology Ventures AG (4 shared filings, management entity), Fionan Breathnach (4 shared filings) and 5 others.

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

All 4 issuers belong to the sponsor group Emerald (4 issuers, $80M reported sold, 2022–2026).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Emerald has 4 companies on file and $80M 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) — 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 4 public filings for Reto Ringer and found 1 difference: Address moved from Dublin 2, Ireland (as filed: L2) to Zurich, Switzerland (as filed: V8).

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.

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.

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.
