FINTRAC imposed a $224,235 administrative monetary penalty on Commerciale I.C. - Pacific Inc. for failing to comply with mandatory anti-money laundering reporting, compliance policy, and risk assessment requirements under Canadian financial regulations. The September 2025 enforcement action followed a compliance examination that identified specific violations, including delayed electronic funds transfer reporting, absent written compliance procedures, and neglected ministerial directives.
