Arthur Griffiths to Pay $30,000 in BC Securities Commission Settlement Over 2019 Share Sales

He acknowledged insufficient oversight of a finder‑led raise that included non‑accredited buyers.

Overview

  • The regulator says investors in RoccaVerde Wellness Corp. lost their money after the shares were sold without proper qualification.
  • In 2019 the company raised more than $192,000 without filing a required prospectus.
  • RoccaVerde had retained finders to seek accredited investors before Griffiths joined as a director and later CEO.
  • The settlement says Griffiths took insufficient steps to ensure compliance and that many referred investors were not accredited.
  • He admitted misconduct before a hearing, cooperated with investigators, and expressed remorse, according to the agreement.
