Three Arrows Capital Was Once One Of The Largest Crypto Hedge Funds

Three Arrows, once one of the biggest crypto hedge funds with some $10 billion in assets under management, filed for bankruptcy in July last year after hitting financial difficulties following the implosion of the Terra ecosystem. It imploded with debts of some $3.5 billion.

After the MAS had previously reprimanded 3AC for providing it with false information, it conducted further investigations that uncovered new breaches. These included failing to notify it in a timely fashion of a new hire, providing it with false information in connection with that hire’s responsibilities, and failing to have in place an appropriate risk management framework, the MAS said.

“MAS takes a grave view of Mr. Zhu’s and Mr. Davies’ blatant disregard for MAS’ regulatory requirements and their neglect of their duties as directors,” said assistant managing director Loo Siew Yee. “ MAS will take measures to remove senior managers who engage in such misconduct.”

After the company  emerged from bankruptcy, it was rebranded as 3AC Ventures.
