MF Global Singapore clients

My views
It is better for Singapore investors to keep their accounts with local brokerages, rather than foreign brokerages, due to this type of problem. The local brokerages are more likely to keep their money in Singapore. Even though the client's monies are kept outside Singapore, I believe that they belong to the clients and should be returned to the liquidators on demand. I don' think that the foreign banks or other institutions have the right to reject the request of the liquidators to return the monies. But, it seems that international finance is getting very complicated and risky.
