MF Global appoints provisional liquidators from KPMG

Provisional liquidators will oversee the winding down of the company.

Meanwhile Singapore Exchange Limited issued this statement:

The appointment does not affect the transfer of customers’ derivatives positions on SGX from MF Global to other clearing members. SGX will continue to facilitate the orderly transfer of positions. Derivatives customers who wish to transfer their positions from MF Global to other clearing members should contact MF Global to do so. Alternatively, the derivatives customers may choose to liquidate their positions directly with MF Global. MF Global is currently meeting their financial obligations to the SGX’s derivatives clearing house.

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.
