Medtech In Trouble with Financial Intelligence Agency -Gets Stern Warning Over Failure Heed Request on Time

MONROVIA – The Financial Intelligence Agency of Liberia has issued a warning letter to Medtech Scientific Ltd for what the agency called the company’s failure to timely submit requested information, warning Medtech could be sanctioned for further failure to comply with a 72-hour ultimatum.

It can be recalled that on December 18, 2024, the FIA, for the second time, and following the company’s failure to meet the December 13, 2024 deadline, requested MedTech Scientific Ltd. to provide critical information and documentations regarding the company’s operations in Liberia, spanning January 1, 2024, to December 31, 2024. 

MedTech Scientific again refused to honor the January 7, 2025 deadline, as contained in the FIA’s December 18, 2024 communication to the company.

This act is counted as a defiance and willful disregard to the statutory powers and authority of the Financial Intelligence Agency, consistent with the FIA Act of 2021, the Agency said.

FIA says it views MedTech’s action as a total violation of section 67.3 of the FIA Act of 2021, which empowers the Agency, among other things, to request and receive information to carry out its functions without delay.
