Different leh, that one is invested into funds, which typically needs clearing… this one is a deposit account. By right, it should behave like one…

[SINGAPORE] Financial services firm Chocolate Finance has temporarily suspended instant withdrawals due to “high demand”.

According to a notice on the Chocolate Finance mobile app on Monday (Mar 10), the platform is currently experiencing an unusually high volume of withdrawal requests.

For withdrawals made during this period, it will take three to 10 days to reach users’ accounts. Once confirmed, the withdrawal requests cannot be cancelled.


The Singapore-based company was set up last July, and boasts close to S$1 billion in assets under management as at February.

Its founder, Walter de Oude, also started Singlife in 2014.

The company said it specialises in providing investment opportunities that cater to Singaporeans’ appetite for better returns.

Chocolate Finance is licensed as a fund management service provider by the Monetary Authority of Singapore.

The Business Times has reached out to Chocolate Finance for comments.

she is right what. money market funds subjected to 2-3 days of processing for withdrawals...empty vessel shouldn't make so much noise if dunno anything

they want to quick liquidate means the price the buyers wanna buy at will be lower too

Walter de Oude, Founder and CEO of Chocolate Finance, said,

Our belief is this—when your money is happy, you’re happy too. We’re simply reinventing how to make your money work harder. We want to remove the friction and barriers traditionally prevalent in the personal finance space, such as complicated criteria, long lock-in periods or low liquidity, and high fees. Instead, we’ve built a simple, seamless place where you and your money can be happy. All the while, being in compliance with the Singapore financial services regulatory framework.

Now it's a matter of whether they did this arrangement properly.
If done well, they should at least pay back some money. But maybe not 100%.
Bank runs are never a nice thing to go through or handle.

Let's hope for the best.
Keep one another updated on any developments.
in theory should be pretty close since it is MMF, 99%...but who knows, since this has never been tested in the real world before
