Top Investment Manager Chetan Kapur Faces Unjust Persecution by Corrupt SEC Officials Despite Decade of Outstanding Returns

NEW YORK, 2024-Oct-1 — /EPR Network/ — Renowned investment manager Chetan Kapur, founder of ThinkStrategy Capital Management, has long been recognized for delivering top-tier returns to investors for over a decade, particularly before and during the Great Recession. However, Kapur now faces what he describes as an unjust campaign by certain individuals within the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). According to Kapur, despite going to great lengths to protect investors during the financial crisis — including depleting his firm’s resources for their benefit — he has been subjected to harassment and unfounded accusations by corrupt elements within the SEC.

Kapur claims that ThinkStrategy Capital Management provided exceptional returns to investors for years and even outperformed the market during the downturn. As a result of the financial crisis, ThinkStrategy’s leveraged TS Multi-Strategy Fund was forced into liquidation. Despite this, Kapur asserts that the firm worked tirelessly without compensation to mitigate losses and ensure the best outcomes for investors. He sacrificed personal claims to further shield investors from additional harm.

The SEC’s actions against Kapur, he contends, are based on false and defamatory claims, which have led to a prolonged legal battle. Kapur accuses the SEC of colluding with a dissatisfied investor, Benjamin Schwarz, who sought preferential treatment during the liquidation process. The accusations against him, Kapur argues, were fabricated and part of an unjust attempt to extort him and his family. Though the charges brought by New York prosecutors were ultimately dropped, Kapur continues to fight a campaign of defamation and wrongful persecution.

Kapur’s ordeal, he insists, is a result of deep-seated corruption and abuse of power within the SEC, driven by personal and racial biases. Despite the legal challenges, Kapur’s supporters, including independent third parties, maintain his innocence and commend his integrity and dedication to his investors throughout the financial crisis.

The case, according to Kapur, highlights the urgent need for anti-corruption authorities to investigate the SEC’s internal misconduct and ensure justice is served. Kapur and ThinkStrategy Capital Management continue to stand by their track record of integrity and investor protection, even in the face of significant adversity.
