Cannabis Investing News
TSXV:NSP

Naturally Splendid (TSXV:NSP) announces it has reached out to Clearstream Banking AG (“Clearstream”) to request that they remove NSE from Clearstream’s restricted cannabis related securities list.

Naturally Splendid (TSXV:NSP) announces it has reached out to Clearstream Banking AG (“Clearstream”) to request that they remove NSE from Clearstream’s restricted cannabis related securities list.

Clearstream previously announced that, effective September 28, 2018, they would no longer be settling and safekeeping securities whose main business is connected directly or indirectly to cannabis and other narcotics products.

Naturally Splendid’s current business activities are limited to hemp-based food and health products for people and pets. Naturally Splendid does not deal in marijuana or marijuana related products. Industrial hemp products are currently permitted in Canada pursuant to the Industrial Hemp Regulations (Canada). Although Naturally Splendid is exploring the development and distribution of cannabinoid (CBD) based products, it is limiting its activities in this area only in those jurisdictions where such products are legally permitted. Naturally Splendid is not in the business of producing, distributing, or dealing with high THC (above 0.3% in Canada) products, either for medicinal or recreational purposes.

As such, Naturally Splendid has requested that Clearstream remove NSE from its list of restricted cannabis related securities.  This follows after the European Industrial Hemp Association (EIHA) has independently reached out to Clearstream similarly requesting that Naturally Splendid, along with four other industrial hemp companies, be removed from Clearstream’s restricted list.

Naturally Splendid CEO and Director Douglas Mason states, “We immensely value our German and European shareholders that have been affected by the Clearstream decision to delist cannabis related securities, and we are taking every possible step to address this issue. NSE will provide further updates as they develop.”
