Managers in an LP

An LP must appoint a local manager (who is at least 18 years of age) if all the general partners are not “ordinarily resident” in Singapore.

The local manager is personally responsible for discharging all obligations of the LP. He is subject to the same responsibilities, liabilities and penalties as a general partner of the LP if the general partner defaults in respect of such obligation.

The manager of an LP must not be an undischarged bankrupt (unless he has obtained permission from the High Court or of the Official Assignee).
