Singapore fined Credit Suisse, UOB after 1MDB probe
Singapore said Tuesday it had fined Credit Suisse and United Overseas Bank (UOB), a local lender, for breaches of the city-state’s anti-money laundering laws relating to a corruption scandal at Malaysian state fund 1MDB.
The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), the country’s central bank, said it also imposed lifetime bans on two bankers and a 15-year prohibition order on a third following a two-year review of lenders involved in 1MDB-related transactions.
