Central Bank Updates List of Prohibited Pyramid Schemes

July 02, Colombo (LNW): The Central Bank of Sri Lanka (CBSL) has expanded its list of entities identified as operating prohibited pyramid schemes, adding Infinity Rover (Pvt) Ltd following the conclusion of a formal investigation.

In a statement, the CBSL said the company had been found to have engaged in, operated and promoted a scheme prohibited under Section 83(C) of the Banking Act, No. 30 of 1988, as amended. As a result, the institution has revised its official list of organisations and digital platforms determined to be in violation of the law.

The Central Bank reiterated that participation in pyramid schemes carries significant financial risks and reminded the public to exercise caution before investing in businesses that promise unusually high or guaranteed returns, particularly those that rely on recruiting new members rather than legitimate commercial activity.
