Ferratum Bank Appeals Malta’s FIAU Fine

Compliance Mark Lagarde - September 7, 2022

Malta-registered and MFSA-regulated Ferratum Bank was fined by the controversial regulator Financial Intelligence Analysis Unit (FIAU). The bank's parent company Multitude SE has considered the FIAU’s penalty decision following a compliance examination on its subsidiary Ferratum Bank. The examination was carried out on Ferratum Bank between December 2018 and May 2019, resulting in an administrative penalty of €653,637. The fine was issued in August 2022, hence almost more than three years after the visit!
