8 banks in Uzbekistan fined

The Central Bank of Uzbekistan has imposed fines on eight banks following inspection checks that revealed several regulatory violations. This was reported by the Central Bank’s press service.

According to the statement, the Bank Supervision Committee of the Central Bank reviewed 43 issues and made relevant decisions during its meetings in September 2025 (held nine times that month).

The inspections identified violations of regulations related to combating money laundering, terrorism financing, and the financing of weapons of mass destruction. Additionally, several banks were found to have breached consumer protection laws in their interactions with clients. As a result, eight banks faced financial penalties.

Moreover, seven banks and thirteen payment organizations were issued warnings for failing to comply with prudential standards, not aligning their activities with legal requirements, and other shortcomings identified during inspections.

Earlier, the Central Bank had fined TBC Bank 615 million soums, Davr Bank 931 million soums, and Hamkorbank 955 million soums.
