金管局:9月10日起严禁汇款公司提供借贷服务

新加坡金融管理局(MAS)勒令,从今年9月10日起,严禁本地汇款公司提供借贷服务。

根据该局在昨日发出的通知,该禁令不会影响现有贷款,包括重组贷款和再融资贷款。

该局表示,将密切关注持照者进行的贷款活动,如有违例行为将果断采取行动。

去年10月,《海峡时报》报导本地一家在幸运广场经营的持照汇款公司Toast Me,“预支现款”(cash advance)给女佣,引起金管局关注。女佣借贷700新元,将被抽取10巴仙利息,而首次借钱还要扣除70元的费用。

一些业者表示,汇款公司主要功能乃是协助把钱财汇至海外,可能一些公司走漏洞,因为他们不属于律政部管制的持照借贷公司。

数据显示向持照借贷公司借钱的外籍人士,从2016年的7500人,跃升至2017年上半年的3万5000人。

为保护在本地工作的女佣和外籍人士,政府扩大借贷顶限,外国人的借贷顶限则为,年薪不超过1万元者最多只能借贷1500元;年薪介于1万元至2万元者,最多只能借贷3000元。这项限制可能使得一些接待者转而向非法管道借钱。

至于金管局发出的禁令,更早于将在明年生效的《支付服务法令》(Payment Services Act)。在该法下,严禁任何支付服务提供者如持照汇款公司,发放贷款于个人。
