A Singapore trader has been charged with four counts of fraud for allegedly raising at least $1 billion from investors for commodity trades that didn't exist (file photo).
At 33, Ng Yu Zhi had all the trappings of a wildly successful trader: a Rolodex full of rich clients, a three-storey villa in a posh Singapore neighbourhood and a Pagani Huayra supercar reportedly worth more than $5 million. Local prosecutors allege Ng also had a dark secret: his lavish lifestyle, they say, was built on lies. In a case that has riveted Singapore's moneyed classes, Ng was charged last month with four counts of fraud for allegedly raising at least $1 billion from investors for commodity trades that didn't exist.

At 33, Ng Yu Zhi had all the trappings of a wildly successful trader: a Rolodex full of rich clients, a three-storey villa in a posh Singapore neighbourhood and a Pagani Huayra supercar reportedly worth more than $5 million.
Local prosecutors allege Mr Ng also had a dark secret: His lavish lifestyle, they say, was built on lies.
In a case that has riveted Singapore’s moneyed-classes, Mr Ng was charged last month with four counts of fraud for allegedly raising at least S$1 billion ($740m) from investors for commodity trades that didn’t exist.
The police have called it one of the city-state’s largest-ever suspected investment fraud schemes. It’s also the latest in a series of scandals in the financial and commodities-trading hub, where assets under management have swelled to S$4 trillion thanks largely to inflows from overseas.
