Securities and Exchange Commission Obtains Final Judgment Against MC2 Capital Management, LLC, MC2 Canada Capital Management, LLC and Yasuna Murakami
The Securities and Exchange Commission announced that it has entered a final judgment against Yasuna Murakami, a former Massachusetts-based hedge fund manager, and two advisory entities he operated in connection with a scheme to defraud investors by hiding trading losses and misappropriating investor funds. Murakami and his two advisory companies settled with the SEC and collectively agreed to pay more than $7.9 million in disgorgement and prejudgment interest, to be deemed satisfied by a restitution order entered in a related criminal case against Murakami.
In May 2017, the SEC filed an enforcement action against Murakami and his advisory entities, MC2 Capital Management, LLC and MC2 Canada Capital Management, LLC. The SEC alleged that Murakami misappropriated investor funds for business and personal expenses and made approximately $1.3 million in Ponzi-like payments. The SEC also charged Murakami’s former business partner, Avi Chiat. Chiat allegedly helped Murakami raise money from investors while providing investors with fabricated account statements that grossly overstated investment performance. The SEC charged Murakami, Chiat, MC2 Capital Management, LLC, and MC2 Canada Capital Management, LLC with violating Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5, and Sections 206(1), 206(2), and 206(4) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and Rule 206(4)-8. The SEC also charged Murakami and Chiat with aiding and abetting MC2 Capital Management, LLC’s and MC2 Canada Capital Management, LLC’s violations of the Investment Advisers Act. The SEC’s litigation against Chiat remains ongoing.
