Singapore Bans Three Arrows Capital Founders For Nine Years

Three Arrows Capital Was Once One Of The Largest Crypto Hedge Funds

Three Arrows, once one of the biggest crypto hedge funds with some $10 billion in assets under management, filed for bankruptcy in July last year after hitting financial difficulties following the implosion of the Terra ecosystem. It imploded with debts of some $3.5 billion.

After the MAS had previously reprimanded 3AC for providing it with false information, it conducted further investigations that uncovered new breaches. These included failing to notify it in a timely fashion of a new hire, providing it with false information in connection with that hire’s responsibilities, and failing to have in place an appropriate risk management framework, the MAS said.

“MAS takes a grave view of Mr. Zhu’s and Mr. Davies’ blatant disregard for MAS’ regulatory requirements and their neglect of their duties as directors,” said assistant managing director Loo Siew Yee. “ MAS will take measures to remove senior managers who engage in such misconduct.”

After the company  emerged from bankruptcy, it was rebranded as 3AC Ventures.

We are excited to announce OPNX's ecosystem partner— 3AC Ventures.

The partnership will invest in projects building in the OPNX ecosystem and working towards a decentralized future.
