Asia Resource Minerals plc (formerly Bumi plc) · London-listed Indonesian coal miner

Governance failureRegulatory breach

The case in brief

Visible before detection

    Checks that could have surfaced it, on hindsight

    1

    Ownership / related-party links

    A related-party map of the subsidiary's counterparties would have surfaced the transactions the company missed.

    Can mislead when: Nominee directors and offshore layers hide links. Name matching throws up false positives, so every flag shows its evidence path.

    2

    Governance signals

    Board disputes and shareholder conflicts would show weak oversight of the Indonesian subsidiary.

    Can mislead when: Private companies file late, so these signals are lagging. Kubr uses them to support other flags, not to prove anything alone.

    3

    Regulatory & litigation records

    FCA and UKLA records would show the later listing-rule findings.

    Can mislead when: Court records lag and name spellings vary. A clean record can mean the problem has not reached court yet.

    Mapped from the checks each service runs. A hindsight reading of public records, not a promise that the failure would have been found.

    A summary of public documents. It reports what the sources say. It is not Kubr's finding and not a statement of guilt.
