Jail for man who used others’ particulars to cheat Temasek Foundation of masks worth $84

SINGAPORE - A marine surveyor obtained the personal particulars of seven colleagues amid the Covid-19 outbreak and used the information to dupe Temasek Foundation into issuing seven face masks through a vending machine. Temasek Foundation is the social and charity arm of Singapore investment company Temasek and the masks cost a total of $84. Indian national Srinivasan Yuvaraj, 39, pleaded guilty on Friday (June 25) to a cheating charge and was sentenced to seven weeks' jail. The court heard that Temasek Foundation had conducted the fourth round of its nationwide mask distribution exercise in March to provide Singapore residents with adequate access to the masks during the pandemic. From March 1 to 14, residents could each collect one reusable mask by keying in their NRIC or FIN numbers at the machines installed at various places, including community centres, islandwide. No further verification was needed and the masks would be issued only once per NRIC or FIN number. Srinivasan had in his possession the name lists of his colleagues, along with their personal particulars. He then randomly selected seven names and jotted down their particulars, including their NRIC and FIN numbers. W...

President Halimah Yacob sends condolences after former Zambian president dies

SINGAPORE - President Halimah Yacob has written to President Edgar Lungu and the people of Zambia to express her condolences following the death of the country's former president Kenneth Kaunda. Dr Kaunda, independent Zambia's first president, died on June 17 at the age of 97. In her letter dated Thursday (June 24), Madam Halimah said: "Dr Kaunda was a remarkable statesman who will be remembered for his role as a champion for African independence. He steered the development of a modern Commonwealth, advocating equality and peace in a tumultuous post-colonial period." She added that Dr Kaunda had also supported Singapore during its early years of independence. As a fellow leader of a newly independent country, he had many interactions with the late Mr Lee Kuan Yew, both being active participants in Commonwealth meetings.

Crypto firms fight for top talent with hundreds of job openings

SINGAPORE (BLOOMBERG) - Booming cryptocurrency firms say they're struggling to find the right candidates to fill hundreds of positions as a frenzy of interest in digital currencies and other assets pits them against some of the world's biggest financial institutions. Despite a rout in May, cryptocurrencies' total market value is up 400 per cent over the past year to about US$1.4 trillion (S$1.88 trillion), and traditional financial firms such as Goldman Sachs Group, Bank of New York Mellon and DBS Group Holdings are starting to offer services and trading. Meanwhile, the likes of CME Group are expanding crypto derivatives offerings - all of which is helping the asset class to mature. That's leaving fewer candidates for crypto firms who need dozens or hundreds of new workers to expand their business. Binance, the world's largest crypto exchange, is advertising for some 370 positions globally, according to its LinkedIn recruitment portal. New York-based Gemini plans to boost its Singapore headcount to 50 from 30 by December. Hong Kong-based Crypto.com, which employs more than 900 staff, has over 200 openings on its jobs page. "We are hiring aggressively," Binance chief executive offic...

SEA faces long road back to pre-pandemic growth but Singapore to buck trend: Survey

HONG KONG (BLOOMBERG) - The prolonged Covid-19 pandemic is clouding economic projections for South-east Asia, with most countries not expected to return to pre-pandemic growth levels for several years. The Philippines will see the largest decline in average annual gross domestic product (GDP) growth in the three years ending 2022 - more than five percentage points - compared with 2019, the last full year before the Covid-19 outbreak, according to median estimates of economists surveyed by Bloomberg. Major economies in South-east Asia expect to grow this year and next, but more slowly than before the pandemic. New local outbreaks and tightened lockdowns have prompted economic downgrades, with most countries reporting their economies contracted in the first three months of the year. Singapore is expected to be the lone country in the region to buck the trend, forecast to grow GDP by an average of 1.67 per cent in 2020-2022, compared to 1.3 per cent in 2019, amid a strong post-pandemic rebound in global trade, said Mr Arjen van Dijkhuizen, senior economist at ABN Amro. The return to normal of international tourism, expected in 2023, could be a key moment for South-east Asia. Indonesia...

China’s ride-hailing giant Didi seeks up to $5.4 billion in US IPO

HONG KONG (BLOOMBERG) - Chinese ride-hailing giant Didi Chuxing is looking to raise as much as US$4 billion (S$5.4 billion) in one of the biggest United States initial public offerings (IPOs) of the past decade. Didi, which is one of the largest investments in SoftBank Group's portfolio, is marketing 288 million American depositary shares (ADSs) for US$13 to US$14 apiece, according to a filing on Thursday (June 24) with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. Affiliates of Morgan Stanley as well as Singapore's Temasek Holdings have agreed to purchase US$1.25 billion of ADSs in the offering, according to Thurday's filing. At the top of the range, the company would have a market value of more than US$60 billion based on the outstanding shares listed in the filing. That is at the lower end of a range that had stretched up to US$100 billion, Bloomberg News reported in April, suggesting investors baulked at the price tag. The same happened with US ride-hailing giant Uber Technologies, which achieved a US$75.5 billion valuation in its 2019 IPO, well below the US$120 billion that had been touted a year earlier. Uber now has a valuation of almost US$95 billion. Didi, whose shares had re...

Banks involved in Archegos meltdown face US probe

NEW YORK (BLOOMBERG) - United States investigators who focus on corporate collusion are examining how global banks handled multibillion-dollar trades with Archegos Capital Management that sent stocks into a spiral and burned other shareholders. The Justice Department's (DOJ) antitrust division is handling at least part of the probe into the collapse of Mr Bill Hwang's firm after lenders rushed to liquidate souring positions in March, according to people familiar with the matter. The debacle also erased much of the billionaire owner's fortune and saddled banks with more than US$10 billion (S$13.4 billion) in losses. The division has been seeking information from Mr Hwang's biggest backers on Wall Street, who had discussed the possibility of moving in concert to unwind the portfolio and sever ties with his busted family office, the people said, asking not to be identified because they are not authorised to discuss the inquiries. A spokesperson for the DOJ declined to comment. In the months since Archegos's downfall, authorities have not accused the family office or its banks of breaking any laws, but the episode has attracted criticism from regulators and kicked off inquiries from wa...

SINGAPORE (THE BUSINESS TIMES) - Singapore has fallen one rung to fourth place in this year's Global Fintech Rankings. And while it still takes the top spot among countries in the Asia-Pacific, the Republic faces stiff competition from countries like Australia, China and Japan, which have moved up the leaderboard this year.
