Catalist group reprimanded over fund-raising; ex-CEO jailed nine years
Oriental Group Limited · Catalist-listed manufacturer / trading group
The case in brief
Visible before detection
Checks that could have surfaced it, on hindsight
Bank credits vs books
Share subscription receipts in the bank would trail the announced completion dates.
Can mislead when: AA only sees the accounts the company links, so an undisclosed account stays invisible. Cash-heavy businesses and timing differences create false flags.
Ownership / related-party links
Placees and guarantee beneficiaries would link back to the CEO and insiders.
Can mislead when: Nominee directors and offshore layers hide links. Name matching throws up false positives, so every flag shows its evidence path.
Governance signals
Board and audit committee approvals missing for guarantees would show.
Can mislead when: Private companies file late, so these signals are lagging. Kubr uses them to support other flags, not to prove anything alone.
Third-party confirmation
Subscribers would not confirm having paid on the announced dates.
Can mislead when: Counterparties can collude or ignore requests. A non-response is logged as a gap, never as a pass.

Mapped from the checks each service runs. A hindsight reading of public records, not a promise that the failure would have been found.
Same pattern
A summary of public documents. It reports what the sources say. It is not Kubr's finding and not a statement of guilt.
