Germany's financial watchdog BaFin has issued a fine to digital bank N26 for delayed reporting of suspicious money-laundering activity, the bank said on Tuesday.
德國金融監管機構BaFin週二表示，由於延遲報告可疑洗錢活動，德國聯邦金融監管局(BaFin)已向數字銀行N26開出罰單。
BaFin ordered N26 to pay 4.25 million euros ($5.0 million) in June related to the delayed submission of suspicious activity reports "in the area of anti-money laundering," in 2019 and 2020.
聯邦金融監管局在6月份命令n26支付425萬歐元(500萬美元)，原因是2019年和2020年在反洗錢領域的可疑活動報告延遲提交。
The fine, related to fewer than 50 reports, was paid on July 14, Berlin-based N26 said, adding that all proceedings have been closed.
總部位於柏林的n26表示，這筆罰款與不到50起報告有關，是在7月14日支付的，並補充説，所有訴訟程序都已結束。
In May, the regulator ordered N26 to implement internal safeguards to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing, including by rectify deficiencies in IT monitoring and customer due diligence.
今年5月，監管機構命令n26實施內部保障措施，以防止洗錢和恐怖分子融資，包括糾正IT監控和客户盡職調查方面的缺陷。
The action comes as BaFin struggles to recover from reputational damage over its oversight of payments provider Wirecard AG, which collapsed in 2020.
這一行動出台之際，BaFin正努力從其對支付提供商Wirecard AG的監管造成的聲譽損害中恢復過來。Wirecard AG於2020年倒閉。
N26, which is eyeing an initial public offering, said it "takes its responsibility in the fight against the growing threat of global financial crime, and in the prevention of money laundering, very seriously."
N26正考慮進行首次公開募股(IPO)，該公司表示，它“非常認真地承擔起打擊日益增長的全球金融犯罪威脅和防止洗錢的責任”。
The digital bank is reportedly in fundraising talks with early Spotify investor Dragoneer Investment Group that would value it at around $10 billion, making it one of Europe's most valuable fintechs, Sky News reported earlier this week.
據天空新聞本週早些時候報道，據報道，這家數字銀行正在與Spotify的早期投資者Dragoneer Investment Group進行融資談判，估值約為100億美元，使其成為歐洲最有價值的金融技術公司之一。
