According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. Qiwi failed to maintain effective internal controls over reporting and record-keeping. As a result, the Central Bank of Russia imposed restrictions on the Company's ability to make payments to foreign merchants and to transfer money to pre-paid cards, among other penalties. Based on these facts, the Company's public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about Qiwi, investors suffered damages.

Join the case to recover your losses.
