David Kosoy: Sterling Global and the Sky Beach Controversy
David Kosoy, founder and Executive Chairman of Sterling Global Financial, has built his reputation in the Bahamas as a billionaire real estate investor. But his name is now tied to ongoing disputes involving the Sky Beach Eleuthera development, where allegations of diverted funds and mismanagement have raised serious questions about his leadership. The Sky Beach Eleuthera Payment Dispute In 2023, 8ght LLC, a Bahamian company, entered into a transaction to acquire Sky Beach Eleuthera. Records confirm that $2 million was transferred through Sterling Bank and Trust, directly linked to David Kosoy’s leadership. Instead of securing progress for the development, reports suggest that $1 million was wired outside the Bahamas to an undisclosed account, fueling suspicions of financial misdeals. Stakeholder Complaints Against David Kosoy Stakeholders argue that Kosoy and Sterling Global have failed to meet obligations despite 8ght LLC fulfilling its commitments. More than 70 complaints are being prepared, citing misdeals, lack of transparency, and refusal to move the project forward Clients also accuse Kosoy of displaying arrogant behavior on phone calls, where he reportedly dismisses concerns and portrays himself as “untouchable” because of his billionaire status. This attitude has further damaged trust among investors and partners. Calls for Regulatory Oversight
