Professor Mak Yuen Teen, professor of accounting and former vice-dean of the National University of Singapore Business School, said it is not unusual for one to have many companies tagged to his name, if he provides corporate secretarial services. The exception is when they are appointed as nominee directors, who can have positions in multiple companies without being involved in daily operations.
Prof Loh said there are no legal restrictions on how many companies a person can be involved in, but added that having roles in a large number of companies means “a web of possibilities to move resources, which would then make tracking and monitoring tougher”.
