Es gibt Probleme bei Qiwi PLC. Die Firma wurde von der Zentralbank wegen regulatorischer Verstösse sanktioniert. Die Geldstrafe ist nicht besonders hoch. Schwerer wiegt die Restriktion der Geschäfte ab 7.12.2020. Es bleibt zu hoffen, dass Qiwi bald zu einer Übereinkunft kommt und die Beschränkungen wieder aufgehoben werden.

We believe that the deficiencies that have been identified by the audit can arise as part of an ordinary course for most banking institutions of Qiwi Bank’s scale. The monetary fine imposed on Qiwi Bank as a result of these findings was RUB 11 million, or approximately USD 150,000.
