Sembcorp Cogen settles with Hin Leong founder Lim for US$50.9m

It will lodge a claim with the bankruptcy trustees of the Lims after the settlement approval.

Sembcorp Industries' subsidiary, Sembcorp Cogen, has settled with Hin Leong Trading (HLT) founder Lim Oon Kuin and two family members for US$50.9m.

In a bourse filing, Sembcorp said its subsidiary accepted the settlement offer and entered a consent order.

In April 2020, Sembcorp Cogen filed a suit against Lim over gasoil it acquired from HTL and stored with Universal Terminals.

After the court approves the settlement, Sembcorp Cogen will lodge a claim for US$50.9m with the bankruptcy trustees of the Lims.

Meanwhile, Sembcorp Cogen will still pursue its claims against UT, regardless of the settlement.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
