REASONS FOR THE ACTION

6.
On the basis of the facts and matters and conclusions described in the Warning
Notice, and in the Decision Notice, it appears to the Authority that Noraminvest is
failing to satisfy the Threshold Conditions, in that the Authority is not satisfied
that Noraminvest is a fit and proper person having regard to all the
circumstances, including whether Noraminvest managed its business in such a
way as to ensure that its affairs are conducted in a sound and prudent manner.

7.
Noraminvest has failed to pay the Overdue Balance and it has not been open and
co-operative in all its dealings with the Authority, in that Noraminvest has failed
to respond to the Authority’s repeated requests for it to pay the Overdue Balance,
and has thereby failed to comply with Principle 11 of the Principles and to satisfy
the Authority that it is ready, willing and organised to comply with the
requirements and standards under the regulatory system.

8.
These failures lead the Authority to conclude that Noraminvest has failed to
manage its business in such a way as to ensure that its affairs are conducted in a
sound and prudent manner, that it is not a fit and proper person, and that it is
therefore failing to satisfy the Threshold Conditions in relation to the regulated
activities for which Noraminvest has had a permission.

DECISION MAKER

9.
The decision which gave rise to the obligation to give this Final Notice was made
by the Regulatory Decisions Committee.

IMPORTANT

10.
This Final Notice is given to Noraminvest under section 55Z and in accordance
with section 390(1) of the Act.
