Dated:

TAKE NOTICE: The Financial Services Authority of 25 The North Colonnade, Canary
Wharf, London E14 5HS (the “FSA”) has decided to take the following action

1.
ACTION

1.1.
The FSA gave Abdul Aziz Mohammadi (“Mr Mohammadi”) a Decision Notice on 20
September 2011 (the “Decision Notice”) which notified Mr Mohammadi that for the
reasons given below and pursuant to Regulation 10(1)(h) of the Payment Services
Regulations 2009 (the “PSR”), the FSA had decided to cancel the registration granted
to Mr Mohammadi as a small payment institution under the PSR.

1.2.
Mr Mohammadi was informed of his statutory right to make a reference to the Upper
Tribunal (Tax and Chancery Chamber) (the “Upper Tribunal”), but he has not referred
the Decision Notice to the Upper Tribunal within 28 days of the date on which the
Decision Notice was given to him.

1.3.
Accordingly, the FSA has today cancelled Mr Mohammadi’s registration.





2.
REASONS FOR ACTION

2.1.
On the basis of the facts and matters and conclusions described in its Warning Notice
dated 4 August 2011 (the “Warning Notice”), and in the Decision Notice, the FSA has
concluded that Mr Mohammadi has failed to pay fees and levies of £475 owed to the
FSA, and to respond adequately to the FSA’s repeated requests that he do so.

2.2.
These failings lead the FSA to conclude that:

• Mr Mohammadi has failed to comply with rules that require him to pay fees
and levies owed to the FSA;

• Mr Mohammadi has failed to demonstrate a readiness and willingness to:

a) comply with his ongoing regulatory obligations; and

b) deal with the FSA in an open and co-operative way

• it is therefore desirable to cancel his registration as a small payment institution
in order to protect the interests of consumers, in accordance with Regulation
10(1)(h) of the PSR (as applied by Regulation 14).

3.
DECISION MAKER

3.1.
The decision which gave rise to the obligation to give this Final Notice was made by
the Regulatory Decisions Committee.

4.
IMPORTANT

4.1.
This Final Notice is given to Mr Mohammadi in accordance with section 390(1) of the
Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the “Act”) (as applied by paragraph 7(b) of
Part 1 of Schedule 5 to the PSR).

Publicity

4.2.
Sections 391(4), 391(6) and 391(7) of the Act (as applied by paragraph 7(c) of Part 1
of Schedule 5 of the PSR) apply to the publication of information about the matter to
