25 May 2026 Padang Trust Singapore Pte. Ltd.MAS: SGD 300,000 against Padang Trust over failures in suspicious transaction reporting €201,708
The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS, Singapore's central bank and financial regulator) allegedly imposed a composition penalty of SGD 300,000 on the licensed trust company Padang Trust Singapore Pte. Ltd. because it failed to inquire into unusual transactions with no apparent economic or lawful purpose and did not file suspicious transaction reports promptly. According to MAS, the causes were inadequate controls, including a lack of scrutiny of unusual transactions and low staff awareness of money laundering and terrorist financing risks and red flags; the company paid the penalty, took remedial action and appointed an independent reviewer to confirm that the measures are effective. The amount and the facts have not been confirmed against the primary source.
Failing to question unusual transactions and delaying suspicious transaction reports breaches core anti-money laundering duties – staff must know the typical red flags.
