    SENTENCING FRAMEWORKS IN SINGAPORE

    Quick Reference Guide and Roadmap

     

    The formulation of sentencing frameworks is an area of active judicial development and innovation in Singapore. In the past decade, these frameworks have appeared in more than 50 sentencing guideline judgments issued by the Singapore Court of Appeal and High Court. Many of the concepts employed in these sentencing frameworks – such as offence-specific sentencing factors, offender-specific sentencing factors, principal factual elements, multiple starting points sentencing approach, sentencing matrix and sentencing bands – have not been considered in other jurisdictions.

    Sentencing Frameworks is the first publication to analyse the substantial body of Singapore jurisprudence on sentencing frameworks. It offers the author’s perspectives on some of the considerations that can go into the formulation of sentencing frameworks. Sentencing Frameworks attempts to answer questions such as what are the different types of sentencing frameworks in Singapore, when would a sentencing framework be helpful, how can the offence-specific sentencing factors and principal factual elements for an offence be identified, what are the situations where a sentencing bands framework may be suitable, and how can the starting point sentences for a framework be derived.

    Sentencing Frameworks is suitable for criminal law practitioners and anyone who is curious about how sentencing frameworks can be formulated and how sentences can be derived.

     

    From the Foreword

    “This book is a timely response to the many developments in this fast-developing area of the law. Its contents offer useful insights not only as to how existing sentencing frameworks may be applied, but also as to where and how new frameworks might be meaningfully developed.”

    Singapore’s insolvency and debt restructuring framework has undergone tremendous change in the last decade. From the incorporation of elements of the US Chapter 11 bankruptcy regime and adoption of the UNCITRAL Model Law on Cross-Border Insolvency, to the restriction of the application of ipso facto clauses, these reforms ensure that the regime continues to remain responsive to the needs of debtors, creditors and the economy.

     

    With the coming into force of the Insolvency Restructuring and Dissolution Act 2018 in July 2020, the Act consolidates the personal and corporate insolvency provisions, previously found in two separate statutes, into a single piece of legislation. This also represents the culmination of various phases of legislative reform – building on earlier amendments to the now repealed Bankruptcy Act and Companies Act.

     

    As Singapore’s principal insolvency legislation and one of the largest standalone bills introduced in Parliament, Annotated Guide to the Singapore Insolvency Legislation – Corporate Insolvency provides detailed commentary on the various provisions in the Act in a simple and clear manner. This includes references to case law, comparable legislation and law reform recommendations.

     

    Authored by the persons who worked on the Act, this offers an authoritative and comprehensive account not only for insolvency professionals, but also anyone seeking a starting point to better understand the Act.

  10. Corporate Governance - Practice and Issues (2nd Ed) Digital

    Please note that the digital copy can only be read on Academy Library, SAL’s proprietary eBook reader. It is not available in any other format (e.g. PDF). For more information, please visit our FAQ page.

    The second edition of Corporate Governance – Practice and Issues is a book on corporate governance written in a practical manner and intended to provide guidance to directors, executives, managers, company secretaries, professional advisers, including lawyers and auditors. It draws on the three decades of experience of the author in the field of corporate governance, stressing the single most important element of integrity, the courage to act on that integrity and basically to do the right thing in the right way at all times. This edition updates the law over the last ten years, and discusses the evolution in corporate governance and whether there has been an improvement.

     

    Taking an out-of-the-box approach, the book (a) looks at the history and evolution of corporate governance over the last three decades; (b) discusses environmental social governance; (c) studies the division of power in the company, looking specifically at whether it is the shareholders, the management or the Board, whether as a whole or through individual directors, who wield power; (d) discusses the traditional concerns about director roles, duties, responsibilities and ensuing liabilities, and the importance of transparency achieved through disclosure and more; (e) reviews the board committees, the need for them, the roles they play and their effectiveness; (f) studies key issues relating to remuneration, the entitlement issues, and how it is to be set; (g) reviews internal control and risk management issues and how these should be handled; and more.

     

    Also included are practical discussion points, and a dedicated chapter focusing on nominee directors and the issues that plague them. Another unique aspect of the book is a chapter dealing with governance concerns of the boards or councils of statutory bodies, which are typically regulated by Acts of Parliament.

     

    The recurrent theme in the book is that corporate governance is not just about structures and processes, but about having the right people do the right thing through the right means all of the time; that is, the structures and processes may be the building blocks of corporate governance, but it is the collection of individuals who provide the foundation.
