Following an extended period of uncertainty and speculation, concrete developments have emerged in the Migom Bank situation. Statutory administrators have finalized their comprehensive investigation, Dominica’s regulators have outlined the path forward, and efforts are now focused on selecting a liquidator to ultimately distribute funds to validated customers. Administrators complete evidence review The Financial Services Unit (FSU) in Dominica ordered Migom Bank to cease operations on February 29, 2024, subsequently naming a statutory administrator on March 18, 2024. This action placed daily operations under the control of an independent UK-based legal and accounting firm, establishing the necessary legal foundation for the investigative and recovery efforts that ensued. The administrators delivered their conclusions to the FSU in August 2024, backing their findings with over 14,000 pages of supporting materials and a comprehensive 153-page summary document. This extensive file serves as the foundation for tracking historical fund flows and structuring the recovery operations. Reports from spring through summer 2025 suggest the regulator plans to engage an internationally recognized liquidator to handle asset recovery and oversee distributions to qualifying account holders. Fund movements across multiple jurisdictions Media reports indicate the administrators’ documentation traces fund movements spanning multiple years through various connected corporate structures across Luxembourg, the UAE, Austria, Ghana, Canada, and the United States. The investigation also uncovered a series of fund transfers that occurred without standard board oversight or regulatory approval processes.
