Providence Financial Investments Inc. Orchestrated an “Ongoing Fraudulent and Unregistered Securities
Offering,” the SEC Alleges
Providence Financial Investments Inc., allegedly ran an investment scheme which the SEC called an “ongoing fraudulent and unregistered securities offering”, according to according to a federal court filing in Minneapolis currently under review by attorneys Alan Rosca and James Booker.
Providence allegedly bought the bills of small businesses in Brazil, which gave them cash-in-hand upfront, then took over the task of collecting from their customers. It bundled these debts into securities with a 12- or 24-month maturity, which it then sold to investors who expected a fixed-rate return of generally 12 or 13 percent, the aforementioned filing reports.

Many Providence Financial Investments Inc. Clients Allegedly Rolled Their Investments Over as Their Notes Matured Rather than Cashing out, Investing Principal and the Return in a New Promissory Note
Many of Providence’s clients have allegedly rolled their investments over as their notes mature rather than cashing out, investing their principal and the return in a new promissory note, according to a federal court filing in Minneapolis currently being examined by attorneys Alan Rosca and James Booker.
The SEC further alleges that Providence’s “current financial situation appears extremely tenuous” and that the firm currently retains less than $250,000, dispersed through 28 accounts, and it that it has met challenges collecting certain of its accounts receivable from Brazil, the aforementioned filing reports.
To make matters worse, the recent devaluation of the Brazil real by as much as 50 percent compared to the rate of the 2015 U.S. dollar means Providence is not able to repatriate its Brazilian assets to repay U.S. investors without suffering huge currency exchange losses, the filing notes.
