This notice is to make the general public aware that Dr Johnaton Abela requested the Malta Financial Services Authority (“MFSA”) to accept the surrender of the authorisation which was issued to the individual to act as a Class A company service provider in terms of Article 5 of the Company Service Providers Act (CAP. 529 of the Laws of Malta). The MFSA has accepted the surrender of such authorisation. This surrender is entirely voluntary and does not arise as a result of any regulatory action taken by the MFSA. Accordingly, with effect from 22 September 2023, Dr Johnaton Abela ceased to be authorised by the MFSA.
