Maybank, ING top creditors of embattled trader Agritrade

The Singapore-based commodity trader owes $303.11m to the two banks.

Dutch multinational banking corporation ING and Malaysia’s top lender Maybank were revealed to be the top creditors of Singapore commodity trader Agritrade International, which was last month placed under interim judicial management, according to documents reviewed by Reuters.

The documents showed that Maybank tops the list of secured lenders to Agritrade with $165.46m (US$118m) owed to it. Meanwhile, Agritrade owes $139.04m (US$100m) to ING.

The trading company has $1.55b in outstanding liabilities to dozens of creditors, including $983m owed to secured lenders, a separate affidavit by Agritrade’s chief executive officer Xinwei Ng dated 16 January showed.

A Maybank spokesman declined to comment on specific clients, whilst ING declined to comment.

What is Lorem Ipsum?

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
