On 30th May 2017, MAS also said that it had issued a permanent PO against Mr Jens Fred Sturzenegger, the former branch manager of Falcon Private Bank Ltd, Singapore branch and served notice of its intention to issue a 3-year PO against Mr Kevin Scully, NRA’s Chief Executive Officer.

Mr Sturzenegger had appealed against MAS’ decision to the Minister. The Minister has dismissed the appeal and upheld the lifetime ban against Mr Sturzenegger.

MAS is reviewing Mr Scully’s written submissions as to why a PO should not be made against him and will announce its decision when this review is completed.

 

The POs prohibit them from providing financial advisory, becoming a management, director or substantial shareholder of any financial advisory firms in Singapore.

 

Mr Ong Chong Tee, MAS Deputy Managing Director (Financial Supervision):

“MAS expects professionals in the financial services industry to uphold high standards of integrity and proper conduct.  Those who fall short of these standards will be dealt with firmly, to safeguard public trust in our financial institutions and Singapore’s reputation as a clean financial centre.”
