Singapore’s scheme of arrangement provisions provide for an automatic moratorium period of up to 30 days for the applicant company to propose a scheme of arrangement to its creditors. In this automatic moratorium period, creditors are barred (except with the leave of court) from, among other things, (1) commencing proceedings against the company; (2) levying execution, distress, or other legal processes against the property of the company; and (3) enforcing any security over any property of the company.
