ZURICH – The Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) has determined violation of market conduct rules at Blackstone Resources AG and one of its directors, the watchdog said on Tuesday.
“It found market manipulation and violations of disclosure obligations,” it said in a statement https://www.finma.ch/en/news/2022/04/20220412-mm-blackstone, adding that Blackstone Resources and one of its directors had inadmissibly influenced the company’s share price repeatedly since its listing. FINMA’s ruling was still subject to appeal.
