Erscheinung:24.05.2019 | Topic Unauthorised business EMATIC GmbH: BaFin orders the cessation and winding-up of unauthorised money remittance business.
In a notice dated 16 April 2019, BaFin ordered EMATIC GmbH, Berlin, to cease and wind up its unauthorised money remittance business immediately.
EMATIC GmbH accepts funds from private persons into its business accounts and transfers these funds to various foreign accounts belonging to companies that are predominantly domiciled abroad. In doing so, EMATIC GmbH is conducting money remittance business without the required authorisation from BaFin. At this stage of the investigations, BaFin assumes that the transferred funds are funds from customers of unlicensed online trading platforms.
The order is final.
