The short version

William Vanover is listed as a director on 4 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Apr 2014 and Apr 2017: Susa Registered Fund, L.L.C. (Westborough, MA — pooled investment fund — 2014–2017; $63.9M reported sold to 560 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 George C. Guynn (4 shared filings), Graeme White (4 shared filings), John Masterson (4 shared filings), Reza Amiri (4 shared filings) and C. Susa Fund Management LLP (3 shared filings, management entity).

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

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 8 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below. Not yet searched: SEC enforcement releases.

What this means 8 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.
