EM CREDIT RISK APAC 
● The FT has a political bias against PAP-Singapore.  
● Although Mr. Gunvor's boss is entitled to his opinions on Singapore; he is not                           
objective. 
● In that context we see Törnqvist's harsh comments on Singapore as an                       
admission of his defeat:  
● Trader lost the trust of the authorities and the transactional financing from ​BNP                         
Paribas and the many other institutions who in the silence severed their ties                         
with Gunvor Group. 
● Contextually, Boss is frustrated to see Novatek ( his ex-partner Timchenko​)                     
trading business taking off and getting attention in Switzerland. 
● At this point we would just be very cautious with any comments & numbers                           
emerging from Gunvor Group. 
● There is always a catch 22 with a ​Gunvor’s model​ ​who relies on cheap bank 
funding while pointing​ the finger at just that in the FT.  
● The ​constructive ambiguity​ built around the group finance/Singapore traders 
competition serves as a diversion.
