KSPI DEADLINE ALERT: Kaplan Fox Reminds Investors of a Class Action Lawsuit Against Joint Stock Company Kaspi.kz (KSPI) and Lead Plaintiff Deadline on February 18, 2025

CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE CASE

If you are an investor in Kaspi and have suffered losses, you may CLICK HERE to contact us. You may also contact Kaplan Fox by emailing pmayer@kaplanfox.com or by calling (646) 315-9003.

DEADLINE REMINDER: If you are a member of the proposed Class, you may move the court no later than February 18, 2025 to serve as a lead plaintiff for the purported class.  If you have losses we encourage you to contact us to learn more about the lead plaintiff process.

On September 19, 2024, Culper Research published a report entitled, “Kaspi.kz (KSPI): The NASDAQ-Listed Fintech Moving Money for Criminals and Kleptocrats” (the “Culper Report”).  The Culper Report alleges that the Company “has systematically misled U.S. investors and regulators in its repeated claims – especially ahead of the company’s January 2024 NASDAQ listing – that the company has zero exposure to Russia.”  The Culper Report further alleges that its research found the “Company’s vast, longstanding ties to bad actors including sanctioned oligarchs and Russian mobsters.”

Following this news, Kaspi stock price fell $19.20 per share, over 16%, to close at $99.81 per share on September 19, 2024.

The complaint alleges, among other things, that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that (i) Kaspi continued doing business with Russian entities, and also providing services to Russian citizens, after Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine, thereby exposing the Company to the undisclosed risk of sanctions; (ii) the Company engaged in undisclosed related party transactions; and (iii) certain of the Company’s executives have links to reputed criminals.
