The short version

Simon Maher is listed as an executive officer on 3 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Sep 2015 and Apr 2017: Bronte Capital Callisto Fund LLC (251 Little Falls Drive, DE — pooled investment fund — 2015–2017; $213.9M reported sold to 84 investors).

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

Listed alongside Bronte Capital Management PTY Ltd. (3 shared filings, management entity), Bronte Capital U.S. LLC (2 shared filings, management entity), Bronte Capital U.S. LLC (1 shared filing, management entity), Jason Fitzgerald (1 shared filing) and Kevin Phillip (1 shared filing).

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

The issuer belongs to the sponsor group Bronte (4 issuers, $362M reported sold, 2010–2026).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Bronte has 4 companies on file and $362M 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 3 public filings for Simon Maher and found 4 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Simon Maher is no longer listed on the Jul 26, 2017 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.

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).
