Case File No. 13 · Undocumented nominee shareholdings, then incapacityVe Wong: put shares in other names, and your heirs must sue for them

Ve Wong's honorary chairman, 頴川建忠, kept the shares of his family's holding companies in other people's names for decades: his chief aide's, a cousin's, his staff's, his sons'. The paper that proved they were his sat with his finance department. Dementia was diagnosed in 2016; he died in August 2023, aged 100.
