Lower volume: Koon may restrict his buying of stocks to less than 5 so that it would need no disclosures.
PETALING JAYA: Savvy investor and philantropist Koon Yew Yin reasoned that his age, wealth and ability to pick the right stocks have contributed to his late disclosures in dealing with his shares becoming an issue.
The 83-year old former civil engineer, who has a large following among retail investors, also alluded that he failed to disclose his buying and selling of shares on time to the company because of the cumbersome system of reporting share transactions on a daily basis.
