NAME & SHAME 1MDB CULPRITS LIKE U.S. DOJ IS BETTER WHEN DEALING WITH HARD-CORE THIEVES: SINGAPORE CENTRAL BANK ADMITS IMPOSING BIG FINES LESS EFFECTIVE
Publicly “naming and shaming” individual responsible for financial misdemeanors sends a stronger signal than levying hefty fines on the banks that employ them, Singapore‘s central bank said Thursday, justifying its response to the controversial Malaysian fund 1MDB.
The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) last month completed a two-year review of banks connected to the Malaysian wealth fund. It fined eight banks nearly 30 million Singapore dollars ($21.7 million) — the heaviest aggregate financial penalties to-date in the country — for violating anti-money laundering requirements.
But those fines paled in comparison to the billions that United States and European authorities imposed for such offences.
“What do we want these fines to achieve? Increasingly, the MAS’ approach is to pin responsibility on the individuals who made the mistakes, who are responsible for the lapses and their supervisors,” Ravi Menon, MAS managing director, said Thursday.
“When you fine a bank billions of dollars, it hurts basically shareholders and other stakeholders. It doesn’t hurt the board and senior management, and it doesn’t hurt the individuals much. And that is what, in my view, one of the failings of the current regime globally that people continue to do wrong things because they’ve not been held personally liable and responsible.”
MAS’ investigation into 1MDB fund flows was a key highlight in the central bank’s annual report released on Thursday. In addition to penalizing the banks, it also barred several individuals from participating in the Singapore finance industry.
Singapore is among at least six countries that launched probes into allegations that nearly $700 million had flowed from the debt-ridden 1MDB into Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak’s personal bank account. Najib has repeatedly denied wrongdoing and cleared of offences by Malaysian authorities.
Menon said even though MAS had completed its review, it is prepared to re-open the files again should there be any relevant new information or leads — underscoring the city-state’s commitment in upholding the integrity of its finance sector, a key component of the economy.
He added the MAS found nothing new in the latest filing the U.S. Department of Justice that warranted further action.
“Last year, I said that the findings on the 1MDB-related transactions that flowed through here had made a dent in our reputation as a clean and trusted financial centre. I believe we have begun the process of restoring that reputation,” Menon said.
