On September 10, 2019, many GPB investors received letters informing them that "new challenges" have impacted GPB's ability to provide audited financial statements to investors by September 30, 2019, as previously promised. GPB now claims it will provide audited financial statements by the end of 2019, and atributed the delay to a number of factors, including:
This delay comes months after InvestmentNews reported that GPB Capital announced sharp declines in the values of its investment funds. According to the article, GPB revealed that at the end of 2018, its funds had declined in value by 25% to 73%, with its two largest funds declining by nearly 40% and 25.4% respectively. The company has still not revealed the true and current value of the funds for 2019. GPB has reportedly raised more than $1.8 billion in investor funds across its various private placement offerings. It has been reported that brokers received more than $100 million in commissions from selling investments in GPB funds to investors and that brokers were incentivized to sell the GPB Funds because of the high commissions and fees they earned. More than 60 brokerage firms sold GPB to investors, including Sagepoint Financial, Woodbury Financial Services, FSC Securities and Advisor Group. What Should GPB Investors Do?
