A show-cause notice was issued to Unimoni Financial Services. The penalty was imposed after considering the company's response.

The central bank, however, added the penalty is based on deficiencies in regulatory compliance and is not intended to pronounce upon the validity of any transaction or agreement entered into by the company with its customers.
