Petition to Singapore Government - Credit Linked Securities

I have now closed the Petition asking the Singapore Government to investigate wrong doing on the credit linked securities. A total of 1080 signatures have been received.

My team is now telephoning the signatories to confirm that they have signed the Petition. We wish to remove names that have been entered mischievously by other people. I expect that the final Petition will contain slightly more than 1,000 names.

I wish to ask all investors to lodge their complaint to the CEO of the financial institution that distributed the structured product. If the matter is not resolved, you can bring it to FiDREC (www.fidrec.com.sg).

The Petition ask the Government to investigate. It is NOT the channel to register your claims against the distributor. It does not replace the work that you have to do to lodge your complaint with the distributor and FiDREC. It does not matter to your claim, if your name does not appear in the Petition.
