Adjudicators with Ontario’s Capital Markets Tribunal ruled the executives received kickbacks and other benefits from underwriting loans with investor money

David and Natasha Sharpe, the husband and wife who ran Bridging Finance Inc., were found guilty of fraud by Ontario’s Capital Markets Tribunal after adjudicators ruled the executives received kickbacks and other benefits from underwriting loans with investor money.

The Tribunal is an independent division of the Ontario Securities Commission and can impose penalties under the Ontario Securities Act. A hearing to consider costs and sanctions against the Sharpes, as well against Andrew Mushore, Bridging Finance’s former chief compliance officer who “indirectly participated” in the fraud, will be held no later than Dec. 6, the Tribunal said.

Bridging Finance was put under a court-ordered receivership in April, 2021, after allegations that the money manager improperly used investor funds to benefit some of its founders and executives. The OSCBridging specialized in making short-term loans to high-risk borrowers, and every major bank and independent brokerage in Canada sold its funds. At the time of its receivership, Bridging managed $2.09-billion on behalf of 26,000 investors, many of them retail investors.
