Data last updated Oct 23, 2026, 5:45 PM ET · Courts (RECAP) last checked: Oct 24, 2026, 2:18 AM ET · SEC enforcement last checked: covered by the index scan as of Oct 24, 2026, 2:50 AM ET

The short version

Roberto Buso is listed as a director on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in May 2009: Alquimia Films Inc. (San Juan, Puerto Rico (as filed: PR) — industry reported as "Other" — 2009; $100K reported sold to 1 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed May 2009. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment — it is a notice, not an approval.

No other person or management entity is listed on the same filings.

What this means The filings name this person alone — no co-officers, directors or promoters were listed.

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) — 6 court cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 6 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 Roberto Buso and found 2 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Form D filed 113 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

2 differences found between the filings for Roberto Buso — 1 worth asking about (compared 1 filing on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Oct 31, 2015 – Dec 26, 2017

5 court cases name Roberto Buso — 1 as defendant

By role: plaintiff in 4, defendant in 1. Newest: "Buso v. Penguin Trading, Inc." (District Court, E.D. New York, Dec 26, 2017); "Buso v. ACH Food Companies, Inc." (District Court, S.D. California, Sep 14, 2017); "Buso v. Just Born, Inc." (District Court, S.D. California, Aug 11, 2017). Some of these are name matches with a match estimate below 95% — check each docket.

What this means Several court cases name this subject. Some are routine business suits. Ask what each was about and how it ended.

Sources
Worth asking · Feb 2, 2009 – May 26, 2009

Form D filed 113 days after the first sale — Alquimia Films Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Feb 2, 2009. The Form D was filed May 26, 2009 — 113 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 98 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
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.
