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.
