The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, historic Mormon Salt Lake Temple is shown here with Christmas light display in Salt Lake City, Utah. The church agreed to pay $1 million and Ensign Peak will pay $4 million. Their lawsuit seeks class-action certification, potentially involving millions of church members, and an independent entity to oversee collection and use of church donations. Ensign Peak has spent funds only twice in its 26-year history, according to both lawsuits. From 2010-2014 it put $1.4 billion to build a mall near Temple Square in downtown Salt Lake City.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints agreed to pay a $1 million fine, while the money manager agreed to pay $4 million. WASHINGTON–The money manager that oversees a $32 billion equities portfolio for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will pay $4 million to settle regulatory claims that it obscured the church’s investment holdings. The church will also pay a $1 million fine, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced Tuesday. Ensign Peak Advisors Inc., the money manager, and the church settled the SEC’s investigation without admitting or denying wrongdoing.
The Mormon Church and its investment adviser with pay millions to settle charges with the SEC. The regulator says the Church's investment manager "went to great lengths" to avoid disclosures. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' has a $100 billion investment portfolio, according to a 13F form. Roger Clarke, the head of Ensign Peak, told the Wall Street Journal that the fund was an emergency account to be used in difficult times. Ensign Peak and the Church have cooperated with the government over a period of time as we sought resolution."
The forms were filed in the name of the shell companies, instead of Ensign Peak Advisers. Ensign Peak Advisers agreed to pay a $4 million penalty to the SEC, while the church agreed to pay $1 million, the agency said. "Since 2000, Ensign Peak received and relied upon legal counsel regarding how to comply with its reporting obligations while attempting to maintain the privacy of the portfolio. As a result, Ensign Peak established separate companies (LLCs) that each filed Forms 13F instead of a single aggregated filing. Ensign Peak and the Church have cooperated with the government over a period of time as we sought resolution," Moore added.
The charges allege the two "went to great lengths" to hid the church's $34 billion in investment assets. A top exec said the church was worried revealing its wealth would cause members to stop donating, the Wall Street Journal reported. The church and Ensign Peak agreed to pay a collective $5 million settlement to settle the charges. The scale of the church's wealth only became apparent in 2019 when David Nielsen, a former employee of Ensign Peak Advisors, made a whistleblower complaint. The Mormon Church's investment portfolio features billions in Apple, Microsoft, and health care stocks, Insider previously reported.
Instead, the firm filed forms for shell companies that obscured the church’s portfolio and misstated the firm’s control over the church’s investment decisions, the SEC said. The SEC filed charges against both the church for causing the violations as well as Ensign Peak. To settle the charges, Ensign Peak agreed to pay a $4 million fine and the LDS church agreed to pay a $1 million penalty. Members of the LDS church are expected to donate a tenth of their income to the church, a longtime practice known as tithing. In a statement Tuesday, the LDS said Ensign Peak and the church cooperated with the government to seek a resolution.
The markets watchdog said the church and its nonprofit investment company, Ensign Peak Advisers Inc, used shell companies to mask its growing investments in public companies, which reached $32 billion in 2018, due to concerns of negative publicity. The use of shell companies came to light in 2019, when a former employee of Ensign Peak filed a whistleblower complaint. From 1997 through 2019, those shell companies filed the mandatory forms detailing the investments and improperly claimed to operate independently. In reality, the investments were still controlled by Ensign Peak, and the church was aware of the arrangement with church employees heading most of the companies, according to the SEC. The church agreed to pay $1 million, while Ensign Peak will pay $4 million to settle charges.
