implemented changes to the CompaniesAct and LLPs
Act, which have taken effect from 31 March 2017.
All Singapore private companies are now required to maintain a register of
registrable controllers and nominee directors, unless they are exempt from
doing so.
For instance, a company is exempt from maintaining these documents if it is a
financial institution regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS).

6. Nominee
Directors
Mandatory Maintenance of Registers | Companies and LLPs
A director is a nominee if the director is accustomed or under an
obligation whether formal or informal to act in accordance with the
directions, instructions or wishes of any other person.
The obligation to act in accordance with the directions, instructions or wishes of any
other person may arise from legal obligations (e.g. contract; trust) or informal
arrangements.
For example, a director is a nominee of a person with a shareholding in a company if
he is appointed by that person to the board of directors of the company, and he acts in
accordance with the directions, instructions or wishes of that person.
