ASC alleges GIC Capital Corp., Maljaars Financial Inc., Jeff Barrie Wilkie and Robert Jacob Maljaars breached Alberta securities laws
CALGARY, AB, May 15, 2025 /CNW/ - The Alberta Securities Commission (ASC) has issued a Notice of Hearing against GIC Capital Corp. (GIC), Maljaars Financial Inc., Jeff Barrie Wilkie and Robert Jacob Maljaars (collectively, the Respondents). The Notice of Hearing alleges that the Respondents perpetrated a fraud on investors and failed to comply with a decision of the ASC. According to the Notice of Hearing, between January 1, 2020, and August 31, 2024, GIC raised at least $2.7 million CAD and $1.9 million USD from investors in Canada and the United States. It is alleged that the Respondents misled investors by claiming that money invested with GIC would be held safely in a segregated trust account.

GIC's investors suffered substantial or total losses. It is further alleged that GIC and Wilkie continued to trade in GIC securities while subject to an Interim Cease Trade Order made by the ASC in June 2024. These are allegations and have not been proven in a hearing.
