The short version

William R. Hagner is listed as an executive officer and director on 23 SEC Form D filings by 8 issuers between Mar 2009 and Oct 2013. Largest by amount reported sold: NZC GUGGENHEIM FUND LLC (Santa Monica, CA — pooled investment fund — 2009–2013; $1.11B reported sold to 165 investors), Guggenheim High-Yield Plus Fund SPC (Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands (as filed: E9) — pooled investment fund — 2009–2013; $571.2M reported sold to 73 investors), NZC GUGGENHEIM FUND LTD (Santa Monica, CA — pooled investment fund — 2009–2013; $408M reported sold to 71 investors), Orpheus Holdings Ltd (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2013; $194.6M reported sold to 8 investors), GUGGENHEIM PRIVATE DEBT FUND LTD (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2013; $100M reported sold to 3 investors) and 3 more (all listed below).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 8 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 4 years. Across those companies the filings report $2.45B sold in total.

Listed alongside Todd L. Boehly (22 shared filings), Anthony D. Minella (21 shared filings), Jeffrey Abrams (21 shared filings), Michael P. Damaso (21 shared filings), Zachary D. Warren (19 shared filings) and 26 others.

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.

All 8 issuers belong to the sponsor group Guggenheim (52 issuers, $13.85B reported sold, 2009–2026).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Guggenheim has 52 companies on file and $13.85B 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 (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, DE, FINRA, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — 8 court cases matching the name, 3 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 11 records came back, including 1 court case still open — open cases can take years and cost money. 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 23 public filings for William R. Hagner and found 14 differences, 5 worth asking the sponsor about: Amount sold went down between filings; 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.

4. Differences between public sources

Comparisons cover issuers and sponsor groups — see the issuer pages under Deals

14 differences found between the filings for William R. Hagner — 5 worth asking about (compared 23 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Mar 16, 2009 – Mar 12, 2010

Amount sold went down between filings — NZC GUGGENHEIM FUND LTD

The Mar 16, 2009 filing says $211,908,601 sold; the Mar 12, 2010 Form D/A says $101,870,000 sold — $110,038,601 less.

What this means Amounts sold normally only go up as a raise continues. A drop can mean investors were refunded, a figure was corrected, or an earlier number was wrong. Ask the sponsor which it was.

Worth asking · Mar 15, 2011 – Mar 15, 2012

Investor count went down between filings — NZC GUGGENHEIM FUND LTD

The Mar 15, 2011 filing reports 23 investors; the Mar 15, 2012 Form D/A reports 20 investors.

This page covers filings where the address state is NY. A separate record, "William Hagner" with address state VA, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by Advance Media Capital LP (Mar 18, 2016). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Mar 16, 2009 to Aug 19, 2013; the other has one filing dated Mar 18, 2016.

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.

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.

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 8

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

The team behind the deals

Sponsor group

Guggenheim

52 issuers · 233 filings · $13.85B reported sold · 2009–2026

One team, 52 deal companies. William R. Hagner is listed on 8 of them.

Sources

Issuers are grouped when their Form D filings share related persons, a management entity or a business address (automatic match from the filings). "Listed" marks the issuers that name William R. Hagner.

Same business address

51 other issuers file from the same address (first 50 shown)

A shared address can mean the same team, a shared office building or a registered agent. It is a lead, not a conclusion.

Registrations and other filings

Business registration (state registry / Secretary of State)

Individuals are not matched to business registrations — registries list companies, and a name alone is not enough to tie a person to one. Officers and managers appear by name inside each matched company's record on the issuer pages. Registries searched: AL (Alabama Secretary of State — Business Entity Records (arc-sos.state.al.us), searched by issuer name, data as of Oct 24, 2026); CO (Colorado Secretary of State — Business Entities in Colorado (data.colorado.gov), data as of Oct 23, 2026); CT (Connecticut Secretary of the State — Business Registry (data.ct.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026); FL (Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations — quarterly corporate data file (Sunbiz), data as of Oct 7, 2026); NY (New York Department of State — Corporations and Other Entities (data.ny.gov: All Filings + Active Corporations), data as of Oct 20, 2026); OR (Oregon Secretary of State — Active Businesses, All (data.oregon.gov), data as of Oct 20, 2026); PA (Pennsylvania Department of State — Registered Businesses, Current (data.pa.gov), data as of Oct 6, 2026); TX (Texas Comptroller — Active Franchise Taxpayers incl. Secretary of State file data (data.texas.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026). Registries of other states have not been searched: many publish no bulk file and require a CAPTCHA or bot challenge on their search page, which we do not bypass (Delaware, for example, offers no public bulk file).

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

A person is never an adviser firm. 7 of the 8 issuers this person is listed on match a Form ADV adviser (searched 24,962 advisers as of Oct 2, 2026): NZC GUGGENHEIM FUND LTD, NZC GUGGENHEIM FUND LLC, Guggenheim High-Yield Plus Fund SPC, Guggenheim Concinnity Capital Stewardship Fund, LLC, GUGGENHEIM PRIVATE DEBT FUND LTD, Guggenheim Private Debt Fund, LLC, Orpheus Holdings Ltd.

Other offering types (Regulation A and Regulation Crowdfunding)

Searched SEC Regulation A Data Sets (Forms 1-A, 1-K, 1-Z; 2015 Q2 → 2026 Q3); SEC Crowdfunding Offerings Data Sets (Form C family; 2016 Q2 → 2026 Q3); EDGAR form index for 2026 Q3 → 2026 Q4 (51,358 records as of Oct 23, 2026, 8:41 PM ET) — nothing matched this name.

Property records none — individuals are not matched

Property records are matched to companies only, never to individuals, so none are matched to William R. Hagner by design. Searched property records in Hillsborough County FL (Clerk recorded-document index Oct 14, 2026 to Oct 15, 2026 + FL DOR 2026 ownership roll), Miami-Dade County FL (FL DOR 2026 ownership roll), Harris County TX (HCAD 2026 ownership roll), Dallas County TX (DCAD 2026 ownership roll), New York City ACRIS documents and PLUTO ownership rows already retrieved for other issuers, Cook County IL sale and ownership rows already retrieved for other issuers (814,874 records as of Oct 23, 2026, 8:59 PM ET) for the 8 issuers this person is listed on — nothing matched.

Public profiles and social

Websites and social links of the issuers William R. Hagner is listed on, as found in their SEC filings (Form C, Reg A, Form ADV, EDGAR profile) or on the sponsor's own site; none belongs to the person unless the sponsor's site says so. Checked Oct 24, 2026.
