MF Global Singapore’s winding down progresses

Yes, liquidators are happy as they have now taken control of over $180 million of customer money.

A Reuters report quoted Bob Yap, one of the provisional liquidators from KPMG, as saying, "We are pleased to update that significant progress is being made in the process of winding-down the business of the company and collection of monies and assets of the company and its customers."

The over $180 million is part of the $309 million of customer money that was held with other financial institutions in Singapore and abroad. According to the report, liquidators are confident retrieving the remainder of that sum.

A further $177.9 million in MF Global Singapore customer money is reportedly being held with third-party correspondent brokers, counterparties and clearing members.

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.
