Noble Group got the green light from a Bermuda court on 14 December after it approved an officer to continue the embattled firm’s restructuring deal.

It allowed Noble to avoid liquidation after its preferred structuring plan which was dubbed as New Noble was blocked at the last moment by an investigation from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and SGX.

According to a joint statement by the agencies, allowing Noble to re-list is “imprudent” given that “significant uncertainties” about the financial position of the New Noble will disable investors from trading New Noble’s shares on an informed basis.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
