SEC ISSUES CEASE AND DESIST ORDER AGAINST PAYASIAN

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has ordered Payasian Pte. Ltd.
Corporation to stop enticing the public to invest supposedly in a cryptocurrency called
Paya without the necessary license.
In an order issued on March 20, the Commission directed Payasian to “immediately
cease and desist under pain of contempt from further engaging in, promoting and
facilitating selling and/or offering for sale securities in the form of investment contracts
and/or other activities/transactions.”
The SEC also prohibited Payasian from transacting any business involving funds in its
depository banks, and from transferring, disposing, or conveying in any manner all
related assets for the benefit of the investors.
The cease and desist order covers the corporation’s partners, operators, directors,
officers, salesmen agents, representatives, promoters, and all persons, conduit
entities and subsidiaries claiming and acting for and on its behalf.
Payasian registered as a corporation in August 2019. Its certificate of registration,
however, did not include an authority for the corporation to sell or offer securities to
the public, an activity that requires a secondary license from the SEC.
The Commission’s Markets and Securities Regulation Department (MSRD) and
Corporate Governance and Finance Department (CGFD) certified that Payasian has
not registered or applied for registration as issuer of securities and for a permit to sell
securities.
Yet, evidence gathered by the Commission’s Enforcement and Investor Protection
Department revealed that Payasian has engaged in the sale and offering of securities
in the form of investment contracts without the requisite license.
The SEC issued an advisory as early as November 14, 2019 for the public to exercise
caution in dealing with any individual or group soliciting investments for and on behalf
of Payasian.
Under its investment scheme, Payasian enticed investors to buy Paya Coins and hold
them for six months in order to receive 30% additional Paya Rewards. It also offered
referral rewards.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
