Abstract

In Madhavan Peter v PP and other appeals,[1] the Singapore court had to consider the scope of the offence of misleading disclosure to the securities market allegedly committed by three directors of Airocean,[2] a company listed on Singapore Exchange (“SGX”), and the scope of the offence of non-disclosure of material information to the securities market allegedly committed by two of the three directors. The case is controversial and significant for a number of reasons.
