Penalty payments to three companies for late notification of managers’ transaction

Share

The Financial Supervisory Authority (FIN-FSA) has imposed a penalty payment on Meriaura Invest Oy and Pokela Oy Iso Omena, and a joint penalty payment for several omissions on Myvision Oy. The companies have failed to notify, by the deadline, the issuer and the FIN-FSA of transactions made on their own account. A transaction notification must be made promptly and no later than three business days after the date of the transaction. The companies concerned are closely associated companies of persons discharging managerial responsibilities in issuers.

The notification obligation is based on the EU's Market Abuse Regulation. The purpose of this regulation is to increase transparency regarding transactions made by issuers’ managers and their closely associated persons, prevent market abuse, provide information to investors and facilitate supervisory activities by authorities.

In these cases, the duration of the delay varied from approximately two months to almost a year. On account of the omissions, penalty payments, payable to the State, have been imposed. The amounts of the penalty payments were determined by an overall assessment considering, in particular, the nature, extent and duration of each omission and the companies’ cooperation with the Financial Supervisory Authority to resolve the situation.

The amounts of the penalty payments are:
Meriaura Invest Oy €30,000
Myvision Oy €7,000
Pokela Oy Iso Omena €15,000

The decisions of the FIN-FSA are not yet legally binding. The companies have the right to appeal the decisions to the Helsinki Administrative Court within 30 days of receipt of notice of the decisions. Information on the legal validity of the decisions is available on the FIN-FSA website.

Regleringen av kryptotillgångstjänster skärptes i och med MiCA-förordningen – konsumenterna bör fortfarande vara vaksamma3.4.2025 10:00:00 EEST | Pressmeddelande

EU:s förordning om marknader för kryptotillgångar (MiCA) tillämpas nu fullt ut, vilket skärper regleringen av kryptotillgångstjänster och harmoniserar marknadsföringen. Övergångsperioden i Finland hör till de kortaste i Europa. Konsumenterna bör fortfarande vara på sin vakt när de köper tjänster, eftersom MiCA-förordningen inte avlägsnar alla risker som hänför sig till kryptotillgångar. Finansinspektionen behandlade aktuella tillsynsteman på sin presskonferens på torsdagen.

Kryptovarapalveluiden sääntely kiristyi MiCA-asetuksen myötä – kuluttajien edelleen syytä olla tarkkana3.4.2025 10:00:00 EEST | Tiedote

EU:n kryptovaramarkkinoita koskevan asetuksen (MiCA) täysimääräinen soveltaminen on alkanut, mikä tiukentaa kryptovarapalveluiden sääntelyä ja yhtenäistää markkinoita. Suomessa siirtymäaika on yksi lyhyimmistä Euroopassa. Kuluttajien on edelleen syytä olla tarkkana palveluita hankkiessaan, sillä MiCA-asetus ei poista kaikkia kryptovaroihin liittyviä riskejä. Finanssivalvonta kävi läpi ajankohtaisia valvontateemoja lehdistötilaisuudessaan torstaina.

Requirements for crypto-asset services have tightened with the MiCA Regulation – consumers still need to be careful3.4.2025 10:00:00 EEST | Press release

The full application of the EU Regulation on Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) has begun, tightening regulation of crypto-asset services and harmonising the market. Finland has one of the shortest transitional periods in Europe. Consumers still need to be careful when purchasing services, as the MiCA Regulation does not eliminate all the risks associated with crypto-assets. The Financial Supervisory Authority (FIN-FSA) reviewed topical supervisory themes at its press conference on Thursday.
