The short version

Scott E. Couto is listed as an executive officer on 17 SEC Form D filings by 17 issuers between Jun 2016 and Jul 2016. Largest by amount reported sold: FIAM BROAD MARKET DURATION FUND, LLC (Smithfield, RI — pooled investment fund — 2016; $2.45B reported sold to 6 investors), FIAM Tactical Bond Fund, LP (Smithfield, RI — pooled investment fund — 2016; $1.22B reported sold to 28 investors), FIAM Global Low Volatility Equity Fund, L.P. (Smithfield, RI — pooled investment fund — 2016; $808.1M reported sold to 8 investors), FIAM Leveraged Loan LP (Smithfield, RI — pooled investment fund — 2016; $762.8M reported sold to 10 investors), FIAM High Yield Fund, LLC (Smithfield, RI — pooled investment fund — 2016; $761.1M reported sold to 10 investors) and 12 more (all listed below).

What this means That is a lot of deals — 17 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer. Across those companies the filings report $10.19B sold in total.

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.

The issuers belong to 3 sponsor groups: Fiam (45 issuers, $17.78B reported sold, 2009–2026), Fiam (3 issuers, $1.21B reported sold, 2009–2019) and Fidelity Distressed (8 issuers, $673.5M reported sold, 2009–2026).

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 bankruptcy case matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 1 record 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 17 public filings for Scott E. Couto and found 9 differences, 5 worth asking the sponsor about: 8 offerings reported less sold on a later filing than an earlier one; Investor count went down between filings; 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.

Sources
Note · May 28, 2014 – Jun 10, 2016

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — FIAM Opportunistic Capital Fund, LP (latest filing Jun 10, 2016)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jun 10, 2016 (first sale May 28, 2014). It reports $25,410,160 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.

Note · Mar 12, 2025

Same name, different state: "Scott Couto" (MT) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is RI. A separate record, "Scott Couto" with address state MT, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by PROPERTYFI INC. (Mar 12, 2025). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Jun 10, 2016 to Jul 15, 2016; the other has one filing dated Mar 12, 2025.

What this means Could be the same person who moved, or two people with the same name. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

Note · Dec 7, 2012 – Jun 26, 2026

What this means Businesses move. If you were told one city and the forms say another, ask which is current.

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).

Deals 17

Every issuer that named Scott E. Couto on a Form D, newest first. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment.
