Every sentence is a value as filed on SEC Form D

Castor Ventures Fund 5 is a Delaware limited liability company that filed a Form D with the SEC on August 26, 2020, describing itself as a venture capital fund. The offering claims Rule 506(c), Section 3(c), Section 3(c)(1) and covers equity and pooled investment fund interests. Castor Ventures Fund 5 reported that the first sale had not yet occurred as of the Form D filed August 26, 2020, so no amount sold or investor count is on file. The total offering amount is listed as indefinite. The offering relies on Rule 506(c), so the issuer may advertise it but may sell only to investors it has verified as accredited. Because the fund also relies on Section 3(c)(1), it may have no more than 100 beneficial owners. The filing reports no non-accredited investors. The minimum investment accepted from an outside investor is $50,000. The Form D names Daniel C Burns (CRD 2269946), associated with Herald Investment Marketing LLC; James E Hurst (CRD 2533112), associated with Herald Investment Marketing LLC; Alain J Hanover (CRD 7184588), associated with Herald Investment Marketing LLC; Deborah L Walden (CRD 7184645), associated with Herald Investment Marketing LLC as recipients of sales compensation soliciting in all states.

Questions About Castor Ventures Fund 5

Each answer is built from the values on the SEC filing and the AltStreet ledger, not from the issuer's marketing.

What is Castor Ventures Fund 5?

Castor Ventures Fund 5 is a Delaware limited liability company that filed a Form D with the SEC on August 26, 2020 as a venture capital fund. The filing claims Rule 506(c), Section 3(c), Section 3(c)(1) for an offering of equity and pooled investment fund interests.

Is Castor Ventures Fund 5 legit?

AltStreet does not rate legitimacy; it reports the public record. Castor Ventures Fund 5 filed a Form D with the SEC on August 26, 2020 claiming Rule 506(c), Section 3(c), Section 3(c)(1). A Form D is a notice of an exempt offering, not a review or approval of it. No sales had been reported as of that notice. AltStreet's enforcement record (SEC, FINRA and state actions) shows no action naming the issuer as of today. Before investing, confirm the filing on EDGAR, check the seller's registration on FINRA BrokerCheck, and read the offering documents, which a Form D does not include.

Is Castor Ventures Fund 5 registered with or approved by the SEC?

No. A Form D is a notice that an issuer is selling securities under an exemption from registration, and the SEC does not review, approve, or pass on the merits of the offering.

It does not verify the issuer's claims or its business.
