The Sanctions Committee of the FSMA (Belgian Financial Services and Markets Authority) found that the shipping company Exmar NV, listed on Euronext Brussels, had not disclosed as soon as possible inside information it held on 19 May and 18 June 2020; the information related to a customer's missing payments for the charter of a floating LNG facility. It imposed a fine of 350,000 EUR and ordered publication by name for one year. Exmar has lodged an appeal with the Market Court.
