Richer was named a respondent in a FINRA complaint alleging that he borrowed $15,000 from a senior customer without providing prior notice to and receiving written approval from his member firm.

B2GOLD CORP (last filing Aug 10, 2009; $52,372 sold of $1,081,195). Each has no filing in more than two years and reported under half its target sold.
What this means An issuer whose last filing is more than two years old and reported under half its target sold. The raise may have closed early or quietly stopped. Ask what happened to each.
The filing says the first sale was May 15, 2025. The Form D was filed Jun 18, 2025 — 34 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 19 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.
The filing says the first sale was Aug 9, 2023. The Form D was filed Sep 14, 2023 — 36 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 21 days past that.

The latest filing for this offering is dated May 17, 2019 (first sale May 6, 2019). It reports $741,342 sold of $1,000,810 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.

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.
