The court shares the Financial Supervisory Authority&#8217;s assessment that the company&#8217;s general risk assessment under the Anti-Money Laundering Act is not sufficiently adapted to the company&#8217;s operations in relation to its products, services, and distribution channels. The judgment can be appealed to the Administrative Court of Appeal in Stockholm within three weeks of service. Leave to appeal is required.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">Operations can continue during the appeal process. Valuno also has established collaborations with licensed partners, meaning that operations can be conducted through these structures as well and are not dependent on the company&#8217;s own authorization.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">The company is analyzing the judgment together with its legal advisors and will return with further information.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">_________________<br \/>For further information, please contact:<br \/>Peter Liljeroos, CEO, Valuno Group AB (publ)<br \/>+46 10-2007655<br \/>investor@valuno.com<\/p>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">_________________<br \/>About Valuno Group AB:<br \/>Valuno Group AB (publ) is a Stockholm-based company listed on NGM Nordic SME, developing infrastructure for modern cross-border payments.
