Myanmar May Flower Bank was a bank of Myanmar. Founded in 1994 by Kyaw Myint, it was formerly the third largest bank in the country with ten branches.[1] It has, like Banco Delta Asia, been designated as a "primary money laundering concern" by the United States Treasury and thus is subject to very strict regulations in its dealings with American banks.[2] The bank's license was revoked by government authorities in March 2005 following a money laundering investigation.[3][4]
