Benefits for citizens and permanent residents

BT Kojak has prepared this table to summarise the benefits for citizens and permanent residents, as taken from the ICA website.

Names of 10 financial institutions

I have arranged to make the placards showing the names of the 10 financial institutions that sold the credit-linked note and were found by MAS to have failed in compliance with the regulations.

These placards are to help the investors to congregate together and get to know the other investors.

Can someone help me to find the names of the 10 FIs and post them here. You can get them from the MAS report.
