which were traded on designated contract markets. According to the order, from
approximately January 2016 through approximately October 2018, Hewko emailed
investors account statements for the Fund, which reported investment gains. However,
all of the purported investment returns contained in the account statements were false.
What little futures trading the Fund did resulted in losses, and proceeds were not
invested in any other manner that generated any returns at all for investors.
The order also finds that Hewko made payments of the Fund assets to various
entities and individuals who were not entitled to such payments. According to the
order, Hewko also made statements to investors about their investments that were not
true, including telling investors their withdrawal requests could not be satisfied
because the Fund assets were “in a trade” (when, in reality, the Fund assets were not
“in a trade” but rather had been dissipated) and telling at least one investor the
investor’s funds were not lost or gone, which also was not true.
Further, the order finds that Hewko solicited funds for participation in a
commodity pool but failed to register with the CFTC as an Associated Person of a
Commodity Pool Operator.
The CFTC cautions that orders requiring repayment of funds to victims may not
result in the recovery of any money lost because the wrongdoers may not have
sufficient funds or assets. The CFTC will continue to fight vigorously for the
protection of customers and to ensure the wrongdoers are held accountable.
