Banker's Link back to Arizona

Following up on the subject of our last post, the linkage between current executives at MFT's alleged offshore merchant bank and the State of Arizona is a little clearer although dated. Much has happened since the events involving entities like Newport Preferred Capital, LLC of Nevada and Pinebrook Investment Group (USA), LLC as is named in this Arizona Court Document. The Court document discusses an "investment scam" (see Point# 9 on Page 4 of the Findings of Fact) that involved an individual from Arizona and this "merchant bank" executive.

According to a document previously downloaded from the Investment Suisse website, both Newport Preferred Capital, LLC and Pinebrook Investment Group (USA), LLC benefited from "US $1,000,000, Private Placement, Issuer's Representative." Strange that both companies were "dissolved" and had a short history after being established. To get the document Google "Investment Suisse ISB" and the PDF document should appear as the first result.

You might also look at Storehouse International Corporation in your due diligence when you are assessing your bankers.

MFT World Entertainment's bankers.

Since we're still trying to figure out why people were looking for information about "Sir Robert Crowley" and the "Investment Suisse" bank on this blog, it seemed like a good idea to look at public representations made by MFT's supposed bankers. The following are Investment Suisse claims taken from their corporate client list featured online. Each claim was reviewed based on the results that appeared from a Google keyword query using the name of each entity claimed to be a client of the same merchant banking and securities company that allegedly holds MFT World Entertainment's vast millions. Perhaps the State of Arizona and, in particular, the people of the Eloy area could have benefited from this type of review before MFT World Entertainment started talking about putting a theme park and movie studio in central Arizona years ago.
(Note: There is no claim being made here as to the validity of the representations posted on the Investment Suisse client list. Do your own research and due diligence. This is not an opinion, financial analysis, representation of corporate status and/or statement of "good standing" regarding any entity, their operations, current status and/or of any of the individuals named and/or related to any of the third-party documentation, links and/or sources referred to as part of or as linked to this blog.)

NEW NOTE: Read this Arizona Court Document to see how a link between MFT's bankers comes back to Arizona without involving MFT.

What in the world??? Better yet, where in the world?

In the past we have remarked on the fascinating places where some of the viewers of this blog come from. In the last month more and more visitors have been drawn to this blog by information that ties our main subject to his bankers of choice; particularly, the documentation that claims to be holding MFT World Entertainment's assets outside of American jurisdictional review and regulation. Considering that MFT's CEO had recently been living with others in a modest home in Tucson for an extended period of time, you would think that some of these alleged riches would have been used to purchase a mighty fine home in this depressed housing market. For some reason, those offshore assets haven't yielded anything of the like. Perhaps the banking document attracts attention because of the uniqueness of its claim and the people it supposedly represents. Worldly people these must be, just take a look at a sample of the blog's most recent visitors and their places of origin:
Ramsey, Isle Of Man
Halden, Ostfold, Norway
Carleton, Dumfries And Galloway, United Kingdom
Douglas, Isle Of Man
Khobar, Ash Sharqiyah, Saudi Arabia
Bhilwara, Rajasthan, India
Undisclosed location, Germany
Georgetown, Demerara-mahaica, Guyana
Paeroa, Hawke's Bay, New Zealand
Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, United States
London, United Kingdom
Palatine, Illinois, United States
Makati, Manila, Philippines
Raymore, Missouri, United States
Moscow, Russian Federation

Could all these people really be interested in a proposed theme park and movie studio in Eloy, Arizona?? If they are, what's driving them to Eloy?
