Singapore MAS Fined Individual S$100,000 for False Trading at Day Close to Support Share Price, Pledged Same Shares as Collaterals for Margin Trading
12th May 2022 | Singapore
Singapore central bank Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has imposed a fine of S$100,000 on an individual (Tan Su Lan) for false trading at day close for 3 days to support share prices of Aspial Corporation (ACL) and Far East Orchard (FEOL) listed on the Singapore Exchange (SGX).Singapore MAS: “Mdm Tan had executed her trades in a manner that was likely to create a false appearance with respect to the price of the shares, and was reckless as to whether the trades would be likely to create such a false appearance … … Mdm Tan had pledged ACL and FEOL shares as collateral for share margin purposes. For 3 consecutive days in May 2016, Mdm Tan purchased shares in ACL and FEOL near or during the close of the days’ trading sessions, resulting in her purchases artificially raising and setting the closing prices of these shares on all three days. As the closing prices of these shares had an impact on the value of her collateral, her collateral value increased correspondingly. MAS Assistant Managing Director (Policy, Payments & Financial Crime) Loo Siew Yee: “Trading behaviour that has the effect of distorting prices adversely affect the fair and orderly functioning of our capital markets. MAS will take firm action against participants who are reckless as to whether their trades are likely to create a false appearance in the prices of securities.”The former director of Lee Hwa Jewellery (a brand owned by Aspial) is also named Tan Su Lan, who is the mother of Koh Wee Seng (Founder of Aspial Corporation).

Singapore MAS Civil Penalty
Singapore | Leading financial centre in Asia
(A) The civil penalty regime
A civil penalty action is not a criminal action and does not attract criminal sanctions. The civil penalty regime, designed to complement criminal sanctions and provide a nuanced approach to combat market misconduct, became operational at the beginning of 2004.
Under section 232 of the Securities and Futures Act 2001, MAS may enter into an agreement with any person for that person to pay, with or without admission of liability, a civil penalty for contravening any provision of Part XII of the SFA. The civil penalty may be up to three times the amount of the profit gained or loss avoided by that person as a result of the contravention, or $2 million, subject to a minimum of $50,000 (if the person is not a corporation) or $100,000 (if the person is a corporation).
(B) False appearance with respect to the price of securities under section 197(1A)(b) of the Securities and Futures Act
Under section 197(1A)(b) of the Securities and Futures Act, no person shall do any thing, cause any thing to be done or engage in any course of conduct that creates, or is likely to create, a false or misleading appearance of active trading in any securities on a securities market, or with respect to the market for, or the price of, such securities, if he is reckless as to whether doing that thing, causing that thing to be done or engaging in that course of conduct, as the case may be, will create, or will be likely to create, that false or misleading appearance.
The case was referred to MAS by the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited. The investigation was jointly conducted by MAS and the Commercial Affairs Department of the Singapore Police Force.
