Fines and Regulatory Issues: Wise Plc's CEO, Kristo Kaarmann, has been fined £350,000 by the UK's Financial Conduct Authority for failing to disclose a significant tax fine and his addition to the public tax defaulters list.
Outcome of Investigation: The FCA deemed Kaarmann's actions as "careless" rather than deliberate, and he remains fit to continue in his role at Wise, which was listed on the London Stock Exchange in July 2021.
