Seychelles - Update on the Re-organisation of BMI Offshore Bank Ltd (BMIO)

As part of the plan to reorganise BMIO, the Central Bank of Seychelles (CBS) hereby pronounces that it has appointed Mr Huns Biltoo, a Partner of KPMG Mauritius, as reorganising agent in line with Schedule 4 of the Financial Institutions Act 2004 (FIA). Consequently, the reorganising agent will as part of his objectives: 
  • assist with revaluating the bank’s compliance function such that it meets both local and international requirements. 
  • formulate a reorganisation plan which, if approved by all the relevant stakeholders under Schedule 4 of the FIA, will put the bank in a position to sustain a permanent correspondent banking relationship and fully restore normal operations.  
  • BMIO’s board of directors will also be issuing a press release to reassure clients of the work being done. 
Throughout this process KPMG will be acting under the supervision of the CBS.
