SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

[Release No. IA–6507] 

Notice of Intention To Cancel 

Registration Pursuant to the 

Investment Advisers Act of 1940 

Notice is given that the Securities and 

Exchange Commission (the 

‘‘Commission’’) intends to issue an 

order, pursuant to section 203(h) of the 

Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the 

‘‘Act’’), cancelling the registration of 

Vista Financial Advisors, LLC File No. 

801–122832, hereinafter referred to as 

the ‘‘registrant.’’ 

Section 203(h) provides, in pertinent 

part, that if the Commission finds that 

any person registered under section 203, 

or who has pending an application for 

registration filed under that section, is 

no longer in existence, is not engaged in 

business as an investment adviser, or is 

prohibited from registering as an 

investment adviser under section 203A, 

the Commission shall by order, cancel 

the registration of such person. 

The registrant indicated on its most 

recent Form ADV filing that it is a large 

advisory firm that has regulatory assets 

under management of $100 million or 

more.1 The Commission believes, based 

on the facts it has, that the registrant did 

not at the time of the Form ADV filing, 

and does not currently, maintain the 

required assets under management to 

remain registered with the Commission, 

nor does it appear eligible to register 

with the Commission pursuant to any 

other provision of the Advisers Act. 

Accordingly, the Commission believes 

that reasonable grounds exist for a 

finding that this registrant is no longer 

eligible to be registered with the 

Commission as an investment adviser 

and that the registration should be 

cancelled pursuant to section 203(h) of 

the Act. 

Notice is also given that any 

interested person may, by January 12, 

2024, at 5:30 p.m., submit to the 

Commission in writing a request for a 

hearing on the cancellation, 

accompanied by a statement as to the 

nature of his or her interest, the reason 

for such request, and the issues, if any, 

of fact or law proposed to be 

controverted, and he or she may request 

that he or she be notified if the 

Commission should order a hearing 

thereon. Any such communication 

should be emailed to the Commission’s 

Secretary at Secretarys-Office@sec.gov. 

At any time after January 12, 2024, the 

Commission may issue an order 

cancelling the registration, upon the 

basis of the information stated above, 

unless an order for a hearing on the 

cancellation shall be issued upon 

request or upon the Commission’s own 

motion. Persons who requested a 

hearing, or who requested to be advised 

as to whether a hearing is ordered, will 

receive any notices and orders issued in 

this matter, including the date of the 

hearing (if ordered) and any 

postponements thereof. 

Any adviser whose registration is 

cancelled under delegated authority 

may appeal that decision directly to the 

Commission in accordance with rules 

430 and 431 of the Commission’s rules 

of practice (17 CFR 201.430 and 431).
